Condal walks
The Prairie du Solnan to Condal Route
On the edge of the Jura and the Ain, the village of Condal as it stands today is the result of its merger with the commune of Saint-Sulpice in 1809. Although it is crossed by the A39, known as the ‘Green Motorway’, Condal has retained its landscape of green hills overlooking the River Solnan. Watermills, wash houses and Bresse-style farmhouses – whose architecture resembles that of the Ain region due to the village’s location – come into view as the paths wind their way through the countryside.
In the countryside around Terreferme
An easy walk to discover the peaceful countryside of the Bresse Bourguignonne. The route passes through farmland, a beautiful lake, meadows and woods, finally following a small river. Here and there are scattered Bresse farms, some still in operation.PR®® (yellow) signposts all along the route.
Circular via Montagnat-le-Reconduit and L'Aubépin from Balanod
A very pleasant walk, with some sections where caution is required. It initially runs alongside the Besançon river. (This walk is not recommended during periods of high water).
Along the route, you will discover an old spinning mill, a waterfall, two viewpoints, the ruins of the Château de l'Aubépin, a chapel and old wash houses.
The route is well shaded and can be enjoyed in summer without any problems.
Fountains and wash houses around Joudes
This is an easy walk with little elevation gain, featuring fountains and six wash houses along the route. Walk on tarmac roads and dirt tracks.
A short climb to the heritage site on the heights of Saint-Amour
The Saint-Amour region offers small villages with charming traces of the past: wash houses, chapels and the L'Aubépin tower with its breathtaking views. An easy and short walk, but it involves climbing from the plain up to the crest of the first Jura hill. Mainly good stony paths.
The Aubépin and Saint-Jean viewpoints
This circular route takes you through several small villages around Nanc-lès-Saint-Amour and offers several beautiful panoramic views.
The Gizia Cross
A lovely loop on the first slopes of the Jura massif, above the Bresse plain (Revermont). A largely forested route, with viewpoints and panoramas, typical villages, monuments and heritage sites.
The Gizia Reculée
A short hike to discover a lesser-known but no less beautiful Jura valley. The loop starts behind the church in Gizia, a small village where the Gizia river has its source. Then a fairly steep but generally shaded climb leads to the village of Le Chanelet, at the top of the 220m high cliff. The Belvédère de Chanelet offers a breathtaking view of the Bresse and Mâconnais regions.
Crève-Coeur circular
A pleasant circular starting from Maynal, crossing the fields and pastures at the bottom of the valley, the vineyards on the sunny slopes, and the meadows and woods on the hillsides. Most of the route is shaded. Lovely views of the Bresse plain and the villages of Revermont.
The Galette Route in Bruailles
Bruailles boasts a well-preserved heritage: the bishop’s house, the vicarage, the church and the bakehouse. The bakehouse was once used by the villagers to bake their bread. Situated in the heart of the village and close to the town hall, it is brought back to life several times a year during various village events.
Two rivers wind their way through the village, flowing between floodplains and wooded countryside: the Vallière and the Solnan.
Le Petit Marmont
A short walk around Bény with no particular difficulties.Be careful in the Bois de Marmont, as the path running parallel to the motorway can be muddy.
The ponds of Montrevel-en-Bresse
Walk around the ponds of Montrevel-en-Bresse.
Mont Myon and the Chapel of Montfort from Pressiat
Mont Myon from Pressiat, then a pretty circular through the forest to reach the Chapelle de Montfort.
Between lakes and forest, starting from Montrevel-en-Bresse
Mountain bike route no. 3, a very pleasant route combining woodland, tarmac and stony paths, running alongside the lake at the La Plaine Tonique leisure centre.A route where walkers, cyclists and horse riders share the path on certain sections.
The Grand Lac circuit in Montervel-en-Bresse
This route takes you around the Grand Lac de la Plaine Tonique. It is a family-friendly route that does not cross any roads.

Hauteurs du Revermont between Signal de Nivigne and Mont Myon
I suggest a lovely circular route in the Revermont area, which ends at the Signal de Nivigne and Mont Myon and offers some beautiful panoramic views. There is one difficult section after the Grotte à l'Ours on a fairly steep passage (secured by ropes).
