Gibles walks

A beautiful, easy walk in the Brionnais-Pays Clayettois region, surrounded by peace and greenery. The route allows you to discover some of the ponds and old grain mills.

Discover the Clayettois region, heading for one of its most beautiful viewpoints: the Montagne de Dun. Beautiful views of the surrounding countryside and the Mussy Viaduct, listed as a historic monument.

Large circular figure-of-eight on Mont Saint-Cyr (771m) located near Montmelard, Aigueperse and Matour starting from En Crozan (769m). Discover beautiful panoramic views of the Morvan, Mont Blanc, Mont Saint-Rigaud and Puy de Dôme. Wander through meadows, Douglas firs, holly, beech and oak trees.

On the GR®7 trail, between the Col des Vaux in the commune of Verosvres and Mont Rigaud, passing through the village of Saint-Bonnet-des-Bruyères. There are many shaded sections in the forest and beautiful landscapes. The trail is sometimes unmarked, so bring an IGN map, but it is preferable to have a GPS device.

On the GR®7 trail between the Col des Vaux, in the commune of Verosvres, and Chevagny-sur-Guye, passing by the Butte de Suin This is a very quiet section of the GR®7. There are no signposts at some junctions and no footprints in the tall grass to mark the route, so you must take an IGN map with you, although a GPS device is preferable. This section of the GR® needs to be more popular, as it is not difficult and offers beautiful scenery. The view from the Butte de Suin is magnificent.

The valleys and foothills south of Montagne de Dunet (736m) and Dun (709m) through the bocage and forests.

Circuit around Mont Saint-Rigaud (1,009 m), the highest point in the Rhône department. At the summit, there is a beautiful view from the belvedere, followed by a walk through the forest. The path follows the old railway line and crosses the Châtelard viaduct.

A short, easy and peaceful walk in the forest starting from Col de Crie.

A hike on the highest summit of the Rhône Department.

A beautiful circular route between shade and sun, with magnificent views of the Upper Beaujolais landscape.

An easy walk leading to one of the highest points in the Rhône with a beautiful unobstructed view.

During this hike, you will pass: - Above a 4,153-metre-long railway tunnel and near a 96-metre-deep ventilation shaft. - The Col des Écharmeaux, which has been a transit point for goods between the Saône and Loire valleys since the 14th century. Napoleon is said to have passed through here on his return from Elba. - At La Roche d'Ajoux (970 m), the highest point in the upper Azergues valley.

A short hike with no significant elevation gain or difficulty. Varied landscapes of the Beaujolais Vert, often in the woods but also in open areas with views of the surrounding countryside. Note: a large part of the route, from Mont Pinay to Les Petites Fayes, is on tarmac, but these are small roads with very little traffic.

A hike of less than 3 hours, without any major difficulties. Around Mont Pinay, the ascent and descent are a little steeper. Mostly in the woods, with more open passages and views of the surrounding landscapes of the Beaujolais Vert. This is a longer version of the "Circular in the Foupeysson forest, at the foot of Mont Pinay" route. Note: part of the route, from the hamlet of Les Rousselles to Mont Pinay and Les Petites Fayes, is on tarmac, but these are small roads with very little traffic.

Starting from Ranchal on the border of the Loire department, this is a beautiful route in the upper Azergues valley.

The village of Saint-André-le-Désert is located between Clunisois and Charolais. I suggest this short walk in the heart of the Charolais cattle breeding region. The paths run through a landscape of rolling hills and hedgerows. You will pass through small hamlets with stone houses and places steeped in history. Suitable for families.

A beautiful circular route starting from Beaujeu that leads to the Croix de Rochefort, where the view is splendid.
