Magnificent view across the countryside all the way to Mâcon

A perfect complement to the Solutré rock and Mont de Pouilly.

Very beautiful place

Several paths lead to the summit. A very pretty hike, which can be extended by climbing its big sister, Solutré, for the more athletic.

Long before the discovery of electricity and the inventions associated with it, our ancestors discovered the possibility of harnessing the power of the elements - which could be useful on the one hand, but could also be a threat as a force of nature on the other - for various purposes. A good example of the human inventiveness of earlier generations is such a mill: the heavy millstones used to grind grain or press oil, for example, could be powered by water or - as here - the wind. Hardly any of them still fulfil their original functions today, but fortunately some have at least survived as evidence of the old days.

The poet Alphonse de Lamartine spent his childhood and adolescence in this house built by his great-grandfather in 1705. This 19th century author and politician left his mark on France, notably through his fight for the abolition of slavery, the decree of which he signed in 1848, when he was head of the Provisional Government.

Beautiful view at a historic site.

Perfect for short walks in the Mâconnais, staying in shape and training for stays in the mountains.
