Pierre Canard

From the Étang des Filatures, head back up to the village of Saint-Vincent-de-Reins via Les Fouilloux and Le Jovin, then return to the lake via Impasse de la Bruchevalière and La Tuilière.

Starting from Saint-Vincent-de-Reins station, follow in the footsteps of Marie-Louise, the locomotive that used to run between Amplepuis and Saint-Vincent via Cublize and Magny. Then climb up to the heights of Magny to return to Saint-Vincent via La Madone.

Along the path running alongside the Loire, you can spot wildlife; amongst other things, I came across a deer and a small, very calm snake before reaching the ponds. The route is well maintained.
