Trail Reviews
This hike is nice, half of the route is on the tarmac, a fairly busy road, too bad! the other part on more interesting paths where you are close to ponds, you can see various species of birds and small animals, hedgehogs etc., beautiful autumn colours, especially if there is a ray of sunshine accompanying you. It is not the most beautiful hike I have done, sorry for the people who live in the Dombes, but I prefer the positive elevation gain, there, it is a totally flat route, but there is something for everyone ; ) so I recommend it of course! Alone or accompanied, it remains a pleasure in the heart of nature accessible to everyone over about 7 km.
