Family hike, ideal for young children.
Very good description.
We couldn't see Mont Blanc because there was too much fog.
Avoid this hike during hot weather as there isn't much shade along the way.

Pleasant walk, no difficulty. Lovely view.
But a few uncertainties about which paths to take,
as there are no signposts.

A lovely, easy walk. Park in the car park below the church and return to the war memorials, then turn right to find the marked route.

Thank you, christalain80
This route is very short, though...
If you have any suggestions for improving the description, please do not hesitate to let us know, we are interested.

A very scattered route with multiple intersections and no signage: in short, it is easy to get lost.

Hike done today,

At the meadow, it was impossible to go any further because someone asked us to turn back without explanation, and we heard gunshots (as well as a hunting dog barking) despite a nearby house and our presence!
This is therefore a dangerous area as there are no signs indicating hunters or "areas" to avoid. So, the path itself may not be "at fault", but at the moment, I would not recommend hiking towards Innimond at all!

Unpaved forest roads in certain municipalities in the Ain department are closed to all traffic (vehicular and pedestrian) from 9 September to 30 September 2016 by prefectural order. Hiking around Innimond is therefore impossible.

I am sorry to read your comment. Finding the town hall in a village of 100 inhabitants is not very complicated. The bread oven is 30 metres away and clearly visible. The goat farm is signposted, and perhaps you could have asked for directions once you arrived, as it is very rare not to see anyone here. Until very recently, there were signs indicating "tour du plateau" (plateau tour). I will check as soon as possible to see if they are still in place.
I would add that it is advisable to bring a topographical map to plan your route. This outing is child's play.
It's a shame you weren't able to enjoy the view, as it is truly magnificent.

I just clarified: with your back to the town hall, turn left. Hopefully that will help those coming after me.

The directions are not clear enough. It took us three quarters of an hour to find the starting point (the town hall is not indicated on the signs, and once you find the town hall, you don't know whether to turn right or left because there are no signs indicating the bakery, there are no coloured markers and there are numerous intersections). The children were tired of turning around to find the path and the parents were getting on edge. Furthermore, we did not have any views of Mont Blanc as indicated... However, it is a lovely area to explore, very quiet, and there is a beautiful 11th-century church to see from the outside as it is closed.

Very diverse flora for September.
A very good family walk (gravel path + grass), no traffic.

Don't forget to visit the church in Innimond to enjoy another view of the Ain plain.
