Ladret Cross Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Super pass to do from Sail sous Couzan for a real climb. It can be done in different variants by taking the traditional route, via St Just en bas or Palogneux. In any case, the roads remain very uncrowded and the landscapes are really beautiful with cliffs and pine forests. It almost feels like being in the south depending on where you look. Percentages are never too high. If we go through Palogneux the climb is steeper but a descent allows us to rest.

Col de la Loge (elev. 1,253 m)

Highlight • Other

One of the most beautiful passes in Forez, a most pleasant climb whatever the slope! And the descent is also pleasant.
If you are in Gravel, there is a junction which allows you to reach the Col du Béal and which is magnificent.
Otherwise you can go ski touring, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing in winter or hike while stuffing yourself with blueberries in summer!
Enjoy and for more advice follow us on Komoot or Instagram @chouchou_team

Col de la Loge

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Col de la Loge peaks at an altitude of 1,253 meters. In winter, it is the gateway to long and beautiful cross-country ski trails which head towards the heart of Livradois-Forez. In summer, hikers take it to enjoy the serenity of the woods that populate the surrounding area.
