Ornans is found south-east of Besancon in the Franche-Comte region of France.

The pretty riverside town is the centre for exploring the region and the pretty Loue River valley, and Lods a little further to the south-east of Ornans.

The town is sometimes known as the 'little venice of Franche-Comté' (!?) and has some very pretty houses along the frontage along the Loue, best admired from the bridges that cross the river.

Apart from the houses along the mirror-surfaced river, explore the rest of the town, including notably a pretty church and town hall.

Courbet, the French pre-impressionist painter was born in Ornans and his house is now a museum containing some of his works. He painted many pictures in the local vicinity.

Also nearby, the Chateau Cléron (south-west of the town) is an attractive castle on the banks of the River Loue.
