サン＝タオン＝ル＝ヴューのおすすめMTBライド

A long, steady climb. Almost no cars, wide roads and beautiful surroundings! Hard to find a coffee or lunch place though.

Not to steep but technical skills are required. Ride from west to east to ride it downhill.

The Glassworks Plateau is located at an altitude of 1,015 meters. It is a large open plateau in the Magdalen Mountains. The landscape is wild and relatively unspoiled.

One of the beautiful passes in the area. Little traffic

From this place, located just before the true highest point of the plateau, one enjoys an unobstructed view of the Roannais, the Alps and the regions of Auvergne.

If you are looking for a hiking adventure in a unique and wild landscape, you should visit the Verrerie plateau, a natural site protected by Natura 2000. This plateau is the last open moor of the Monts de la Madeleine, and it is home to rare and diverse flora and fauna in its bog, which dates back to 4600 BC. A wooden walkway will allow you to enter the protected area without harming the environment. From this plateau, you will have a breathtaking view of the Roannais, the Alps and the Auvergne. In the past, glassmakers burned all the beech trees to melt the silica. The Plateau de la Verrerie is a place where nature and history meet, and where you can experience a different hike.

Arcon is a very pretty commune with hills and a beautiful old church.
