The curiosity of the trail : the Bun J Ride. A large 28-metre springboard leading to a 42-metre drop, held in place by 2 mobile bungee cords. A world first, made in Saint Jean de Sixt, it revolutionised bungee jumping in 2009. Open from May to October.

About
Take the Chemin des Sixt for 500m (between Saint-Jean Sport and the church) then turn right to go down to the "Nom" (the stream that flows through Saint-Jean de Sixt). After the footbridge, turn right and follow the path as far as the Bun J Ride hut, then turn left immediately. The route then winds through the forest. At the top of the wood, turn right into the field and continue until you reach the entrance to the ferry wood. At the end of the wood, cross the small road to Bois de l'envers. Follow the road for 400m, then return to the Bois de l'envers in the direction of the village.
Caution: Follow the road for 400m before returning to the woods.
