An easy walk, mostly on gentle paths. A few climbs, but nothing too strenuous. The route passes through woodland but also offers sweeping views of the region’s countryside.

Departure from Saint-Nizier-d'Azergues (Rhône)
A short walk, shared with walkers and perhaps… cyclists on ‘the viaduct route’. The marked route is about 8 km long and offers plenty of variety, alternating between hamlet crossings (with a bit of tarmac to navigate…) and woodland paths with little elevation gain.
