nice walk and restaurant for a drink

Surrounded by green hills and forests, this reservoir offers a peaceful setting for a stroll or a boat trip. The dam itself, with its panoramic views of the Loire Valley and the Château de Grangent, emerging from a small island, is a striking sight.

This 110 meter long Himalayan-style footbridge is suspended above the Loire. The footbridge rests on the piers of the old bridge dating from 1892. It is reserved for pedestrians and bicycles and connects the town center to Aurec-plage labeled “Aire Respirando”.

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.

The calm of the Canal

Beautiful footbridge over the Loire.

I grew up there in Unieux Pertuiset Throughout my youth with childhood friends during school holidays it was every day superb walks in summer and winter from Unieux to Saint-Victor sur Loire and back. in autumn when the Loire burst its banks the hike was impossible the road and the bridges were flooded. on the other hand during the flood we had to go to the grangeant dam because 3 out of 4 valves were open, it was impressive especially with the food supplies.
