Magnificent golden stone village overlooking the valley

Built between 1883 and 1886, Fort du Paillet was part of the fortified belt of Lyon. This well-preserved site housed up to 400 soldiers and controlled the strategic routes to Paris. Decommissioned in 1899, it was an internment center during the Second World War. Today, a trail allows you to discover its 35 hexagonal markers and its rich military past. A place combining history and nature, perfect for a break on your trail or hike.

The Fort du Paillet, located in the Monts du Lyonnais, is a historic site surrounded by nature offering a breathtaking view of the surrounding region. This fort, once strategic, is today a peaceful place where vegetation has regained its rights, creating a unique setting for a walk.

The Chateau de Charnay area offers excellent mountain biking opportunities, with trails winding through the picturesque Beaujolais countryside. Located in the Rhône department, the chateau itself is a classic medieval fortress with golden stone walls that are a reminder of the region’s history. You can stop and have a coffee while enjoying the village atmosphere.

Accessible by a short but efficient, very pleasant climb from Chazay-d'Azergues! For more advice follow us on Komoot and Instagram @chouchou_team

Pass there if Saint-Jean-des-Vignes is on your route, and vice versa.

A well-deserved break if you have taken the climbs to the south-east of the village, at >10-15%, to arrive at Charnay.

Ideal for lunch break.
