For the adventurous and those on a budget, there is also the youth hostel solution.

When it comes to going out, you’re spoilt for choice, day or night! Hikes and sports activities of all kinds, discovery of unmissable sites, guided tours of the city or signposted circuits to follow on your own, walks in Besançon by night, theme bars to meet new people…
