Luzinay walks

This is a nice walk which mostly consists of walking around the town through beautiful forests and fields. This route is a nice alternative to avoid any slippery and muddy parts when it has rained a lot. It also passes through a historical cemetery and church where you can stop for a lunch break.

Starting from Luzinay, between wetlands and shady forests. Beautiful views of the Pilat, Vercors and Mont Blanc mountains and the Lyon metropolitan area. Depending on the season, between the start (S/E) and point (3), in the morning you may see storks resting in the wetlands of the Sévenne valley, grey herons and great egrets. The first part of the route, up to point (6), is mainly flat terrain on small roads with little traffic during the day and a few small paths. After the village of Villette-de-Vienne, deer and pheasants can often be seen on the hillsides, for those who know how to be discreet and observant. The end of the route takes you past the medieval chapel of Illins (11th and 13th centuries) and its cemetery. There are no particular difficulties in terms of orientation, but signposts are rare, if not non-existent.

This is an unpretentious walk. It alternates between different landscapes (countryside, forest) and surfaces (gravel paths, small asphalt roads). If the weather is clear, you will have many views of the surrounding peaks. There are two small hills (not too steep) to keep you in shape.

A walk mainly on paths, along the Fausse, Charoin, Les Endiennes and Noyon valleys between Marennes and Villette-de-Vienne.

From the 19th-century Romanesque church of Saint-Barthélémy to the Bois du Recours, this pleasant short walk offers magnificent views of Lyon, its mountains and the snow-capped Alps in fine weather.

This walk alternates between wide-open views of the surrounding valleys and distant mountain ranges (Monts du Lyonnais, Pilat, Alps) and pretty, fairly hilly sections in the forest. This hike can be shortened at various points, see the box "During the hike or nearby".

A fairly easy hike alternating between forest trails and wide open views. Best done in dry weather with clear skies to make the most of the views of the Alps and the beautiful hills and valleys at the start of the route. This is an opportunity to discover the Château de Septème.

Near Lyon, a day's walk along beautiful paths. Woods, a few hills, beautiful landscapes and a beautiful castle.

This circular route connects the Gère valley to the Malissol neighbourhood. It follows a path along the banks of the Gère, part of which is in the Malissol forest, near the fitness trail, and some more rocky sections in the heart of the Malissol neighbourhood. A family walk with a slight incline, best done with flat, closed-toe shoes (forest trails).

An easy walk in the village of Estrablin which, over the course of two hours, offers large open views over the surrounding hills and mountains. We mainly take small peaceful tarmacked country lanes, which means you can enjoy a walking excursion even after heavy rainfall and when the paths are almost impassable.

Val d'Ozon spring hike for disabled people. 12 km route in the hills above Ternay.

A hike starting from Louise Labé in Saint-Symphorien-d'Ozon, heading towards the heights of Marennes, around Simandres.

Stroll through the narrow streets of Seyssuel, then on the way back, pass by the old castle and continue through the vineyards. Half of this route is paved, but you will have some beautiful views of the Monts du Lyonnais, which makes this part seem shorter.

A hike that almost exclusively uses small roads without traffic, providing a route where the paths are not an option. We start in Vienne and experience its panoramic views of Notre-Dame de Pipet and the Vienne hills with beautiful views of the Rhône Valley and the Pilat massif at the bottom. The return journey takes you through the homes on the Vienne heights while maintaining good views of the Viennoise hills.

A rural walk through the Vernéa valley and woods. In the second part, you will walk along the crest of the hill and enjoy beautiful views of the Pilat mountains.

A very rural hike through woods and hills, with beautiful views of the Alps and Pilat Park. :1: Please note: hike currently being modified. The passage on the (private) path from (1) seems to be causing problems. In the meantime: at the fork, 400 m before this waypoint (1), turn right (Chemin des Frères) then left onto the D167 and further on you will find the waypoint (2).

A beautiful hike alternating between woodland trails and majestic views of the Pilat Regional Nature Park and the Rhône Valley.
