The watershed - Beaujolais Vert - Poule-les-Écharmeaux

The advantages of the route
Length, height differences, typical landscapes of the upper Azergues Valley, here is the “perfect” combination of this ideal circuit for varied approaches to hiking…

Adventurers who love physical effort: climbs, ridge paths, descents on stony ground … are there to stimulate endorphins and dopamine. A day trip, far from everything, to walk in full awareness: the feeling of Escape is guaranteed by the wild character of the vegetation, the forest as far as the eye can see and the panoramas of the natural and green landscapes of the middle mountains. The route takes 6 km of the GR®7. It gives an overview of this roaming that connects the Vosges to the Pyrenees along the watershed line between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic. When and how to enjoy it? With good shoes for walking or running, binoculars, a camera and a good snack. By stopping at a place called Les Monneries to visit the wetland by following the small duckboard path. In the spring to take a bath in the forest with the scents of wild plants. For the pleasure of concluding the hike in a cocooning atmosphere around a tasty hot chocolate or a flavoured tea.
