Set in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region, the Jura is a genuine natural treasure that shelters an impressive variety of forests and woodland for sale in the Jura. These wooded massifs — combining pedunculate oak, Scots pine and beech — play a vital role in the local economy and in protecting the environment. With a strong vocation for timber production, they open up opportunities for the sale of standing timber and firewood, as well as for leisure pursuits such as hiking and hunting. Production forests and forest properties are subject to a range of rules, including management plans, that guarantee sustainable, biodiversity-friendly stewardship. The French Forest Code can also grant valuable tax advantages, such as exemptions from inheritance duties and from the Real Estate Wealth Tax (IFI).
