In addition to being a nice hike, this circuit is interesting because throughout the trail signs provide educational information on the fauna and flora, tree species etc. It also helps hikers discover the local agricultural heritage that is everywhere so close to Lyon.

End by visiting the medieval village of Rochefort where you can visit the remains of the keep and the chapel.
