Very pretty waterfall

Highlight • Other

A short walk of an hour and a half with the family, through very pleasant paths, along the river. Some difficult sections on the return of the loop, but good fun crossing the river.

Refuge du Garnier

Highlight • Mountain Hut

On the bucolic heights of the Forez mountains, the Garnier inn welcomes hikers all summer long. Local menus are also served there. The Fourme de Montbrison fondue is delicious.
