L'Isle-d'Abeau walks
Wild nature between Saint-Alban and Four
You don't have to go to the ends of the earth to get away from it all. In the first part of this route, you will discover wild and little-used paths before a more sedate second part.
The Trois Vallons Golf Course and the Bois de Montgeard
An idea for a walk to get some fresh air.
Fouroise walk
Shadow and light for this "four seasons" hike.
Vénérieu and the Moras Pond
Walk near the CAPI, mainly in the woods. In the first part, there are beautiful views of the Bourbre valley, Bourgoin-Jallieu and Isle d'Abeau. On the way back, you walk along the Étang de Moras, but the reeds prevent you from seeing the shore. A few communal ovens and wash houses adorn the route.
Yellow signposts throughout the route. Allow between 3 and 4 hours depending on your pace and photo stops.
Around the Moras Pond
An easy little walk for a Sunday afternoon.
Surroundings of Panossas
A short walk that takes us to Mont Morel and Étang de Charamel via the Tilleul de Sully, with a glimpse of the archaeological site of Panossas.
Around Veyssilieu
A loop starting from Veyssilieu to discover some panoramic views and the chapel of Notre-Dame de la Salette at the top of Chatelan mountain.
Note: this loop follows the routes indicated on the large map at the side of the road, i.e.: Cros de Lavan, Les Gorges, Frétignier, Seuillere, Floutier and back to Veyssilieu.
Around the Etang de Rosière
This is an easy, short hike offering superb views of the Vercors and Chartreuse mountains once you reach the plateau.
The route takes us through wooded areas and agricultural plateaus, mixing shade and light.
Best done in good weather to enjoy the coolness of the forest and the unobstructed view.
Roche and Bonnefamille loop between woods and panoramic views
In good weather, you will have magnificent views of the Alps and the Lyon metropolitan area.
From Bois de la Casse to Loudon
Hike around Montbernier, between forest and plateau. A lovely, gentle route around Montbernier. Beautiful views of the surrounding area as you walk across the plateaus. A shaded route that combines forest and field paths.
From the Vacheresse woods to the Revollet woods
A very beautiful day's walk on more than 90% paths and trails, in the undergrowth surrounded by nature where you can really breathe, not far from Bourgoin-Jallieu and Lyon.
Aillat, Grande Forêt from Chèzeneuve
This walk is taken from the "Du bois de la Vacheresse à celui du Revollet" hike by Jipedeu, of which it forms the western wing.
A pleasant alternation between woods, clearings and cultivated fields. Few roads and lots of clean, well-maintained paths, very pleasant in all seasons.
Around Moras
Hike around the Moras lake through the Bois de Fromentay in the Balmes Dauphinoises for a breath of fresh air, passing by the pretty 14th-century Château de Montplaisant.
Loop around Chozeau
This pleasant little walk will allow you to enjoy a mix of woods, meadows and crops. It will also enrich your photo album, as you can capture the wildlife on the Varnieu pond, located on this route, and the original architecture of Bourcieu Castle.
Around Roche
An invigorating walk, with little tarmac, on pretty paths in the woods around Bonnefamille and Roche. You will pass the monument at the Châtain cross and, after crossing Roche, you will wind your way through the woods, where you can discover the cup-marked stones of Roche.
Between Poizieu and Moras
This circuit will take you to Lac de Moras and, on a clear day, there is a superb view of the Alps and the lake from the Moras cemetery.
The two chapels of Vermelle and Meyrié
A pleasant hike, mostly on paths and trails, with a good part in the woods.
The route is hilly and shaded, with a variety of points of interest: horses at the equestrian centre, the Gouille pond and hut, the Agny valley, the charming little 12th-century church of Vermelle and the Chapel of La Petite Salette in Meyrié.
The castle and ponds of Saint-Quentin-Fallavier
A beautiful, bucolic walk to explore the riches of the town of Saint-Quentin-Fallavier. I recommend following the route with the app so you don't miss any poorly marked trails.
Around the Château de Saint-Quentin-Fallavier
Saint-Quentin-Fallavier yesterday and today. Contrast between modernity and medieval times.
Quinsonnas Castle and the Verneicu valley
A lovely, pleasant and varied walk. There are no difficulties to be feared, as the elevation gain is well distributed.
Towards Quinsonnas, you will have beautiful views of the mountains. You will pass three interesting buildings: the Château de Quinsonnas, the Demeure de Fichaillon and the Church of Vermelle. The icing on the cake is the descent into the charming valley of the Verneicu stream.
Walk between Le Bourg and Trept
A short hike through woods and fields that is also suitable for families.
Villemoirieu Tower
We will tour the hamlets of this unusual commune, where the town hall, school, church, cemetery and village hall are located outside the residential areas. We will discover several châteaux, a bread oven and panoramic views of the Ain plain.
Through the woods of Perrier and Fontenaille
This is a pleasant hike that can also be done in hot weather as 90% of the route is in the shade of the woods.
The Devil's Stone route in Artas
This is a walk with little elevation gain and no difficulty, except for the distance. You will stroll through the rolling countryside of northern Isère. As a bonus, you can walk around the Pierre du Diable (Devil's Rock) and maybe even climb it!
Stroll through the medieval town of Crémieu
This circuit offers a glimpse of the medieval town of Crémieu.
Loop between Crémieu and Dizimieu
A route with changing landscapes between the Lyon plain and the Alps, shaded in summer with glimpses of the Alps.
In the valleys and on the plateau around Les Éparres
A beautiful hike offering stunning views of the Bugey Mountains, the Épine Massif and the Chartreuse, with the Alps in the background.
Circular north of Charantonnay
This is a short, unpretentious walk, offering nothing more than the chance to get some fresh air and stretch your legs.
La Croix de Bénédict from Charantonnay
A short walk on quiet tarmac roads and dry paths but with no shade (so best avoided in summer). Near the Croix de Bénédict, there are two orientation tables with views of the Monts du Lyonnais and the Bugey mountains, as well as the Alps, the Chartreuse and the Vercors.
