Tips

Guillaume Favez

May 11, 2022

Cycling

The Roanne to Digoin canal was built between 1830 and 1836 and extends for approximately 55 kilometres. Nicknamed the "quiet canal", it has remained wild and its banks are home to remarkable flora and fauna. A good part of the canal is bordered by a towpath, but this section of more than 5 kilometers south of Briennon rests on an asphalt cycle path in perfect condition.

Great canal, we walked along its entire length during a Paris Lyon and it's great!
