Description of the walk

Park in the priory car park.

(S/E) Cross Montée de l'Église and take Chemin de Balanche opposite. Ignore the turnings on the right and continue to Route des Rivoirelles.

(1) Turn right and walk for a good hundred metres, then turn left onto the path to reach the Étang de la Combe Gibert.

(2) Go around the pond on the right and come out at a crossroads not far from the pumping station.

(3) Turn right and continue to the D36E (Route du Pontet).

(4) Cross the road carefully and turn right to follow it for about a hundred metres. Turn left onto a path along a small wood, reach a crossroads and follow it to the right until you reach a junction near a farm: dogs may be running free but they are very friendly.

(5) Turn left and continue to a four-way crossroads at the bottom of Germanie.

(6) Turn left again and continue straight ahead to join the Route de Saint-Laurent d'Agny (D105). Follow it carefully to the left for about a hundred metres.

(7) Cross over and take the road on the right. Once at the multi-directional crossroads, turn left and continue straight ahead to reach the primary school. Continue for about 100 metres to reach a crossroads.

(8) Take the road opposite, then turn left onto Rue Sainte-Agathe. Stay on this street, turning left at the three-way junction, then left/right onto Rue de la Béniconière to continue on Rue Sainte-Agathe.

(9) Opposite the village hall, turn right onto Allée des Jardins, cross Rue des Pépinières and continue straight ahead, crossing part of Jardin Pie X. You will come out onto Rue du Pensionnat.

(10) Turn left. Cross Place de la Bascule and turn right onto Rue du Cuvier. Turn right in front of the church, then left to return to the car park (S/E).

A very beautiful walk around Talluyers, with lovely scenery and perfect for a Sunday stroll with your dog. The route ends with a zigzag through the village so you can admire its monuments.

Sunday hike around the village of Taluyers. The lake, vineyards and old castle are the main points of interest. Views of Lyon and even the Bugey power station

We did this route on a hot day between 7.30am and 9.30am. Crossing the town is a bit tedious on the way back, but the route is very pleasant and varied enough for a short hike. We also discovered the vineyards of the Coteaux du Lyonnais. As we did this on a Wednesday, we finished with a few purchases at the weekly market in Taluyers.

A lovely walk through beautiful countryside. A short break on the benches in front of a grassy, flower-filled square at the end of the route.

complete lack of signage on the route: difficult to find the start and the first junctions. The map is sufficient for the last two-thirds of the route in the open countryside.
THANKS to the designer.

A very good route because it is close to Lyon Vernaison, along paths and through fields. There are just two sections of road less than 200 metres long to cross, and then at the end when you arrive in the village. This walk, which takes 1½ hours, would also make a very good jogging route. Combine it with a visit to the excellent restaurant in the village. Very good for getting some fresh air. Walk completed with the app

A beautiful start with a visit to the magnificent priory, followed by a walk through meadows, orchards and vineyards and a pleasant tour of the lake.
Views of the Lyon metropolitan area and, on this day, a glimpse of the veiled Alps.
Thanks to the author for this country walk, which must be very beautiful when the orchards are in bloom.

A short walk through the countryside, past orchards and other crops. Walking around a pond
in all its tranquillity, with a distant view of the mountains and the city of Lyon.
Thanks to the author for this breath of fresh air.
