This short loop will take you to the heights of La Nuizière, passing isolated farms (Bert, Le Chollet, Giraud) and crosses (Nuizière, Aliziers and Bert), between dirt tracks and small country roads.

This loop starts in the village of Meaux-la-Montagne and follows roads and paths that take you to the peaks of La Nuizière via the Col de la Cambuse, the Croix du Villard and the Croix de la Nuizière, through fields and pine forests.

Starting from Saint-Vincent-de-Reins station, follow in the footsteps of Marie-Louise, the locomotive that used to run between Amplepuis and Saint-Vincent via Cublize and Magny. Then climb up to the heights of Magny to return to Saint-Vincent via La Madone.

This loop will take you over hill and dale around Grandris. Don't miss: The memorial to the woodcutters who lost their lives in the storm of 1999 near the hospital and, a little further on, when you reach the calvary, you can admire the whole valley and the village before setting off on a series of picturesque little paths.

This circular route opposite Grandris will take you from meadow to meadow and through woodland, offering numerous panoramic views of the village and its surroundings. It is possible to combine this circular route with another, as the section from (7) to (11) is shared by both.
