The best MTB trails around La Chapelle-De-Guinchay

The Rock of Solutré is a world-famous, 493-meter-high limestone rock in the south of the Burgundy region. It is located amidst the picturesque vineyards of the municipality of Solutré-Pouilly. The region is officially designated as a Grand Site de France. The hike to the summit is easy to moderate and very doable for families. It takes about 1 hour for the entire loop (approx. 4 kilometers round trip). The elevation gain is around 100 to 140 meters from the official parking lot on well-maintained paths with information panels, although there are many steps.

Although the pass is located in France and is not extremely high, its name translates to "Siberia Pass". The name goes back to the often very cold, snow-rich winds and the harsh weather conditions in winter.

The viewpoint is located in the well-known Beaujolais wine region, in the municipality of Chénas. It is an old stone ruin (historically often referred to as Cabane des Chasseurs or hunter's hut), which has been equipped with a modern metal staircase and a viewing platform. The ruin is located at 515 meters above sea level and offers hikers a spectacular 360-degree panoramic view of the surrounding vineyards and valleys of the region.

The Maison de Bois (Wooden House) is located at Place aux Herbes in the center of Mâcon. It is the oldest and most famous residential building in the city. It was built between 1490 and 1510. The ground floor is made of masonry, while the three floors above are built entirely of wood. The wooden structure is famous for its countless, partly grotesque and suggestive carvings. Mythical creatures, monkey masks, and naked and winged figures can be seen. Today, a popular bar-restaurant is located on the ground floor.

The Berges de la Saône (the riverbank promenade of the Saône River) is a modernized riverbank section in the Burgundy region of France, near the road du Pont Vert. This paved riverside path is a popular section of the well-known La Voie Bleue cycle route (Moselle-Saône cycle route) and serves as a recreational and event area for both pedestrians and cyclists.

The Saint-Laurent Bridge (Pont Saint-Laurent) is a historic stone bridge that spans the Saône River. It connects the town of Mâcon in the Saône-et-Loire department with the municipality of Saint-Laurent-sur-Saône in the Ain department. Initial wooden structures were already built by the Romans. The current stone bridge dates back to the 11th century in its core and is considered the oldest bridge over the Saône. The structure consists of twelve stone arches. On one of the pillars, there is a statue of Saint Nicholas, the patron saint of boatmen. It is one of the few historic structures in the region that survived the demolitions of World War II unscathed.

You have to be very lucky to see Mont Blanc from here, but the journey is the destination.

A few hundred meters from the church of Saint-Amour-Bellevue, this orientation table takes advantage of its position to open up a wide panorama of the vineyards and the Saône which flows in the distance.
