La Chaux Animations is the website of the village festival committee in La Chaux-de-Gilley, a small mountain community in the Saugeais area of eastern France, near the Swiss border. Set at around 900 metres in a landscape known for green summers and snowy winters, the village brings together its central settlement and surrounding hamlets. The site introduces local life and shares information about activities, events and practical visitor resources.

Its annual programme includes the August 15 festivities and the Chauxathlon, with sporting activities such as walking, ski-roller, cycling, mountain biking, running and trail events. The celebrations also feature children’s games, a tractor exhibition, a fairground-style pork race, refreshments, music and live entertainment. The website provides event updates, including programme changes, and offers links to information about local accommodation and businesses. Visitors can also view a live webcam at La Cernay Blanche, home to the village’s family-friendly ski lift. Through its events and visitor information, La Chaux Animations highlights the area’s outdoor setting, local conviviality and community spirit.
