Revermont () is a natural region of France located in the departments of Ain, Jura, and a small portion of Saône-et-Loire.
== Geography == Geographically defined as the western foothills of the Jura Massif, the Revermont is characterized by limestone relief situated north of the Rhône-Alpes region and southwest of the Jura Massif. It extends from Lons-le-Saunier in the north to the Ain River in the east and the town of Pont-d'Ain in the south. It stretches west to east across the Bresse plain, bordered by Departmental Road 1083 linking Bourg-en-Bresse to Lons-le-Saunier, paralleled by the A39 motorway, towards the Suran Valley and then to the Ain Valley.
