レ・ソバージュの峠・トップ9

Several beautiful roads and paths starting from this pass

Even using the cycle lane I don't feel safe: heavy road traffic and a circuit popular with motorbikes which overtake you at very high speed.

A rolling pass but with a lot of traffic including some heavy goods vehicles. A wide cycle lane allows cyclists to climb in safety. However I advise to take another pass to make the junction, for example to use the road between the cassettes and the pestle on a false uphill slope.

Nice pass to do from St Just d'Avray in the forest, without significant percentage and quite short. We also climb on the St Appo side with beautiful views of the Pilon wind turbines. It can also be reached from the Col de la Croix Thel.

Col de la Croix des Fourches, in the middle of the forest, on the heights of the village of Saint-Just d'Avray.

A small pass to do from Tarare, or Valsonne. Not very hard percentages and quite short. Rural landscapes surround us on the climb. Note a beautiful little road that connects the Col de la Croix Paquet, Col du Pilon with beautiful views but a coating that is not incredible so you can enjoy the landscapes.

Very nice pass to do from Chamelet, Ternand, Valsonne, or from the Valsonne valley. The climb from Chamelet is terrible for Beaujolais: 4 km at 8% average. Viewpoints are present and traffic is low.

Pass which allows you to go from St Appolinaire to St Just d'Avray without difficult percentages. Very nice road that goes to the Col de la Croix de Thel. The view at the top is very beautiful on the wind turbines of the Col du Pilon. The road that connects St Appo and the Col du Pilon offers a magnificent view and an impression of altitude rarely found in Beaujolais.
