Pressiat walks
Mont Myon and the Chapel of Montfort from Pressiat
Mont Myon from Pressiat, then a pretty circular through the forest to reach the Chapelle de Montfort.
Hauteurs du Revermont between Signal de Nivigne and Mont Myon
I suggest a lovely circular route in the Revermont area, which ends at the Signal de Nivigne and Mont Myon and offers some beautiful panoramic views. There is one difficult section after the Grotte à l'Ours on a fairly steep passage (secured by ropes).
Hauteurs du Revermont from Treffort
Starting from the picturesque medieval village of Treffort, I suggest a lovely route through Revermont, taking in a few viewpoints along the way. The main difficulty is the length of the route: see the Practical Information section.
The secret waters of the Suran
Descending from the nearby Jura mountains, the Suran has a peaceful valley where water flows abundantly. It has a very active underground course between Chavannes and downstream from Meyriat. The Suran can disappear for much of the year.
This route, which runs alongside much of this watercourse, starts on a quiet tarmac road and then, from the hamlet of Corcelles, continues on unpaved paths or through the woods. The route is marked in yellow.
Rosy Castle and Col des Justices
A lovely hike with beautiful scenery at the Col des Justices and the view of Rosy Castle. A pleasant hike despite its difficulty in certain sections.
Circular route around Chavannes-sur-Suran
A lovely walk with beautiful views. The walk is far from monotonous, with varied terrain (grass, earth, stones, tarmac).
Take the time to admire the scenery and the various hamlets.
Le Petit Marmont
A short walk around Bény with no particular difficulties.Be careful in the Bois de Marmont, as the path running parallel to the motorway can be muddy.
The Chartreuse de Sélignac circular route starting from Arnans
A beautiful view of the Chartreuse de Sélignac from the cliff overlooking it. A charming route along the surrounding wall by the river. Very passable paths. However, in wet weather, the route along the walls can be a little soggy. No problem in dry weather. A picturesque circular route.
Short flight around the Chartreuse de Sélignac
A short walk around the Chartreuse de Sélignac, with some lovely views.
From Saint-Maurice d'Echazeaux to Montdidier Castle
A pleasant, easy circular walk, mainly through woodland. The charming church of Saint-Maurice-d'Échazeaux (or des Chasaux), which overlooks the confluence of the Valouse and Ain rivers, and the ruins of Montdidier Castle are worth exploring.
An overview of the Revermont
A long hike that takes you around the Revermont region, passing through various small villages, scenic viewpoints and the Abbey of Sélignac. Two crossings of the Suran river over large stones.
Some paths are overgrown; see reviews
From Corveissiat to the Chartreuse de Sélignac in a circular route
Starting from Corveissiat, a circular route takes you to the Chartreuse de Sélignac, passing by some beautiful viewpoints along the way.
The reculée and the Roche de Châtillon
A magnificent hike with panoramic views of the Ain and the Jura plateaus, caves and waterfalls.
From Granges to Heyriat, Pisse-Vache waterfall and Bonbois
An alternative route from Granges to Heyriat, descending to Bonbois. This path is in better condition than the descent near the chapel. This route takes a short detour to the Pisse-Vache waterfall, which is featured in guidebooks. It is interesting during rainy periods but only a trickle of water when the previous weeks have been dry. Return via the village of Bonbois and along the River Ain.
