A little "kick in the pants" to get out! Cool and in the shade!

The coolness in these gorges is much appreciated when it's close to a heatwave on the plains! And the wild atmosphere of the small road through these gorges (before reaching a busy road for a beautiful descent) is good (a little "kick in the ass" to get out!).

A tourist attraction in this area is Lake Paladru, which stretches from the village of the same name in the north to Charavines in the south. If you walk around the lake from a distance rather than on the paths directly along the shore, the hills offer some very beautiful views of the landscape. But not only that: on the outskirts of Bilieu – on the eastern shore of the lake – we pass a small sacred monument: a simple wayside cross made of two massive wooden beams (without a body or INRI inscription), which already shows the wear and tear of wind and weather.

Located at an altitude of 500 m at the bottom of a depression of glacial origin with a substantially north-south axis, the Etang du Grand-Lemps nature reserve presents an exceptional flora and fauna heritage over 53 ha. Its slopes are shared between pastured meadows, crops and chestnut copses. The bottom of the depression corresponds to a marsh covered by peat bog vegetation and phragmites. The peat environments, and more particularly the sphagnum groups, constitute the originality of the site. Source: Natural Reserves Org

Pasture by the water, there are happy cows.

High up on the hillside here you get an amazing view of this glacial lake.

Viewpoint on the cliff

At 988m and with sharp vertigneous cliffs the Dent de Moirans is a summit from which you get stunning views of the plains and the Isère below.
