Bellegarde-sur-Valserine is a former commune in the Ain department in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region in Eastern France. In 2019, it had a population of 11,326. On 1 January 2019, it was merged into the new commune of Valserhône.At this spot, the water of the two rivers runs underground; it was possible to cross both of them easily. Since the inception of the Génissiat Dam at Injoux-Génissiat, the level of the Rhône was raised several metres and the Perte du Rhône submerged. A smaller similar feature, the Pertes de la Valserine, on the former border with Lancrans, is still visible.
