Col de la Luère (714m) walks

A short loop for an afternoon stroll from the Col de la Luère. A very pleasant route, entirely in the forest, on easy paths and trails.

A lovely ten-kilometre loop starting from Grézieu-la-Varenne. Mainly in the forest, it takes you up the legendary Col de la Luère.

A beautiful loop in the forest between two of the main passes in the Monts du Lyonnais. A breath of fresh air and a little warm-up just a stone's throw from the city of Lyon.

A hike of around 20km, starting and ending at the church in Sainte-Consorce. A varied route through woods, meadows and suburban areas.

A refreshing hike between Pollionnay, La Croix du Ban, Col de la Luère and the Château de Saint-Bonnet le Froid. Much of this route is through woodland.

A pleasant hike in the sunshine, perfect outside of summer! Superb views in three directions. Numerous paths but also small tarmac roads with very little traffic. A lovely 3-hour walk in the Monts du Lyonnais (estimated time for regular walkers).

100% trail route From (1) to (6), this route is completely unfrequented, so a GPS is recommended, although in this steep-sided valley there is a slight discrepancy with the actual route. Due to fallen trees, this section of the park is complicated, and you will need GPS and common sense to make your way through. Although this is not a mountain hike, do not attempt this route if you only hike on well-marked trails, as this is an area without any trails.
