However, he did not commit suicide and died with honours. He deliberately placed Jesus in her right arm so that he would not hide his mother's face as she blesses the town

Around Sonut
A lovely walk from Morette in the hills above Tullins. In the woods or on the hillsides, there are magnificent landscapes to discover along the trails.
A nice climb in the direction we took it. It's easier in the other direction.
Rochers de Chalves via the south ridge
A fun hike bordering on mountaineering on a very little-used route leading to the Rocher de Chalves via its southern ridge. You will discover the Ouillon, a monolith clearly visible at the foot of the ridge, before climbing an easy rock face (never exceeding 3c) along the ridge.
Caution: there is a sheer drop below the ridge, so you must proceed slowly and test each hold carefully, as some boulders are ready to tumble down.
Around Baracuchet
A country walk to discover the hamlets and ponds around the Colline du Baracuchet.
