It is thanks to the Amis de la Voie du Tacot that you will discover this walk. This association organises walks throughout the year, with the largest gathering taking place in early November. Two lines of the Chemins de Fer du Beaujolais, opened between 1901 and 1902, linked Villefranche to Monsols and Villefranche to Tarare. The car replaced the train in 1934. Walk along sections of this track, now converted into a footpath, which runs the entire length from Liergues to Sarcey.
