    The Canal du Forez is 44 kilometers long. It plays an important role in the irrigation of the lands of the plain, since it is the main water resource of the Forez basin. It is ideal for a walk.

        The loop around the Canal du Forez is very pleasant and above all within the reach of all cyclists from 7 to 77 years old! The tracks are perfect, to point out the crossing of the Bonson which must be done in the water because the bridge is narrow for the crossing. Be careful on the way back, a closed lock prevents passage on the left bank.
