With some terrific day trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to soak up everything that Besancon, 25 miles away, has to offer. See the sights beginning with Besancon Citadel, Citadel of Besancon and Micropolis Conference Center. Belfort is another wonderful option. It’s 25 miles away and boasts a range of awesome things to see and do. Lion of Belfort, Belfort Citadel and Belfort Cathedral are just the start.
