Superb. You can continue over the footbridge at Farinet with your mountain bike, descend to Leytron or climb to Ovronnaz and descend to Chamison.

Here you can cycle along a quiet cycle path between the golf course and the Rhone. On one side you can see the orchards and on the other side you can admire the steep slopes with their equally neat vines.
