The Chateau de Charnay area offers excellent mountain biking opportunities, with trails winding through the picturesque Beaujolais countryside. Located in the Rhône department, the chateau itself is a classic medieval fortress with golden stone walls that are a reminder of the region’s history. You can stop and have a coffee while enjoying the village atmosphere.
