To the Trees, Citizens! A lovely walk through the woodland, heading towards the Criel plateau. Along the route, you’ll find all the common tree species and the Criel walnut groves. From the ridges, there’s a panoramic view of the peaks of the Vercors and the Chartreuse.On the way back, a permanent exhibition of photographs in the woodland illustrates the Chemin du Sophora. The return route then takes you through the Parc de l’Ancienne Soierie and its remarkable trees, then past the Lavoir des Amours, where weavers used to wash their linen and, perhaps, meet their soulmate.

Eighth stage from east to west on the Way of St James. You are now on the Via Gebennensis – GR®65 or the ‘Route du Puy’ – which is undoubtedly the best-known route as it most closely follows the historical path to Santiago de Compostela.
For this8th stage, you will walk mainly through fields and forests, punctuated by a strong cultural identity at La Côte Saint-André and also in villages such as Ornacieux or Balbins, with the Saint-Michel Chapel offering a magnificent 360° panorama.
