Péron: Hotels and accommodations

Part of the municipality of Péron lies within the Réserve Naturelle Nationale de la Haute Chaîne du Jura. The Écopont de Péron creates a special connection with the local wildlife: it restores the ecological continuity of the RD 884 and enables wild animals, including red deer, to cross between the Jura massif and the Rhône Plain towards the Alps.

Roe deer and wild boar have been observed most frequently at the Écopont de Péron; since 2021, the presence of red deer has increased significantly.

If you are planning a stay in Péron, you will want to find suitable accommodation.
