| TOWN PRESENTATION |
Pontarlier is a city located in the mountains to 837 m altitude in the mountains of Jura.
Capital of High Doubs Pontarlier is the gateway to a vast area of protected nature, where there is forest, lakes and green pastures needed to manufacture the Mont d'Or and the County.
Pontarlier became known worldwide through the production of absinthe in the early last century. Today the city has returned to this tradition as two distilleries produce absinthe again.
