This route allows you to discover the geology and heritage of the northern part of the village. Old paths, picturesque hamlets, a castle, wash houses, etc. All set against beautiful landscapes and panoramic views. This route is the focus of the Pommiers 2023 geo-event – not to be missed.

How about a short walk to see Pommiers from a different perspective? A geo-discovery walk that highlights the rich historical heritage around Pommiers. This route, which was the subject of a geo-event in 2021, is definitely worth a detour.

This is an easy hike starting from Anse, allowing you to discover the countryside around Anse and Lucenay.

Problem with blocked passage in (7), see reviews.

This route allows you to discover the geology and heritage of the south-western part of the village. Ancient paths, wooded areas, cadoles (vineyard huts) built by our ancestors, but you will also discover a little-known part of the local industry of the past: clay extraction for tiles and bricks, lime kilns, hemp retting, and of course viticulture, all set against a backdrop of beautiful landscapes. This route is the subject of the Pommiers 2022 geo-event, not to be missed.

Surplombant la vallée de la Saône, le sentier traverse les vignes du Beaujolais et passe par le bas du vallon de Rochefolle pour rejoindre l'acrobranche de Blacé, en traversant le ruisseau le Sallerin / le Sovarin et traverse une forêt de feuillus et de résineux. Une pause à la Chapelle de Saint-Bonnet révélera la beauté du panorama sur le Val de Saône et le Beaujolais.

In the commune of Blacé, discover this 5 km trail, the Madone, built to protect the harvests, and enjoy the orientation table offering a panoramic view of the Monts du Lyonnais on the border with Burgundy and, on a clear day, Mont Blanc.

A 10 km circular that winds through the vineyards of Blacé and along the old Voie du Tacot road, passing through the village of Saint-Julien and near the Claude Bernard Museum.

Randonnez sur ce sentier de 25 km et partez à la découverte du patrimoine blacéen, sa viticulture, ses panoramas, ses vieilles demeures. Ce circuit est une synthèse des trois autres circuits de la commune de Blacé et reprend en partie ces derniers (la Madone 5 km, les Béragnons 10 km et les Têtières 16 km).

From the Minimes site to the Croix du Paradis in Guéreins, walk along the heights of the Val de Saône with views of the Monts du Beaujolais before returning along the towpath by the river.

A flat route, suitable for all, often used for Sunday walks. Due to the passages over the railway line, pushchairs are not recommended. For geocaching enthusiasts, I have marked the caches located along the route.

Through the vineyards, it leads to Mont Brouilly and its chapel overlooking the Saône valley, offering a beautiful panorama of the Beaujolais mountains, the Bresse, the Dombes and the Monts d'Or. The second climb leads to the Beaujolais moors and offers beautiful views of the green Beaujolais region and, on clear days, the Alps.

A hike that follows paths and little-used roads through the Pierres Dorées region in the Beaujolais area near Lyon.
