20의 에폭스가지 명소 & 주요 장소

The Col des Sauvages is located at an altitude of 723 m, in the Massif Central, on the watershed between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, in the Rhône department, in the village of Sauvages, near Tarare.

Starting point for many hikes in the surrounding area, it hosts the Valsonne drummer festival.

Tipping point on the ridge between several valleys. Very pleasant climb from Saint Julien sur Bibost.

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 very beautiful site with a magnificent view at this crossroads of many roads. However, can we really speak of a pass because it is basically a cross, but this place has the whole profile to be one. In any case what is certain is that you have to go up there!

The Col de la Croix de Mazieux from Saint-Forgeux is 6 km long with a total drop of about 298 m. The average gradient is 5% with maximum gradients of 9%, however the first part of the climb is steeper and flattens out after 4km.

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.

Junction between the Col des Sauvages, Cassettes, Pilon and many mountain bike trails. We can enjoy beautiful views of the surrounding forests and great tranquility on a very small road, it is literally peace.
