    Tips

    The Glay quarries are the only yellow stone quarries located west of Azergues. They were exploited from the 15th century and closed in 1947.

    The Carrières de Glay esplanade was formed by the accumulation of stone cutting rubble. Today it offers a unique panorama.

    The site is classified as a “Sensitive Natural Area” because of the variety of its fauna and flora.
