A walk that is accessible to everyone, in amazing surroundings. Lakes, swamps, vineyard, villages, fortified house, woods... a variety of incredible sites, at the foot of the Dent du Chat Mountain ! Easy itinerary. Duration : 4:30 hours. Starts from the car park of the leisure centre in St Jean de Chevelu.
From the beach parking lot, the path leads to the village of Saint-Jean-de-Chevelu, then on to a delightfully sunny path. It's easy to see why vines thrive here!
When you reach the hamlet of Les Grangeons, take a look at these little buildings, known as sartos. They were used to store tools and preserve wine. The inhabitants of Chapelle-du-Mont-du-Chat, on the other side of the mountain, used to spend the night here when they came to work the vines.
At the picturesque hamlet of Monthoux, adorned with a chapel and tower, don't miss the viewpoint, which can be reached by a quick round trip. The balcony path at the foot of the cliffs is an easier walk.
Finally, you'll discover a fortified house at La Platière. These buildings, built to defend Yenne in the Middle Ages, are a local specialty: there are 10 in Saint-Jean-de-Chevelu alone! How many have you seen along the way?
