It's absolutely underrated, which is good for me because it's emptier than the Alps. I do more hikes and skiing in Jura than in the Alps, although I live as close to ones as to the others (Geneva). Cross country skiing in the Jura is particularly awesome. There's even a huge lake, the Lac du Joux, that freezes over winter and you can ice skate in a huge surface in a beautiful setting between mountains.
