De bästa landsvägscykelrutterna runt Pérouges

En fantastisk utsikt på 680 meters höjd

Fantastiskt och definitivt värt ett besök. Här kan man verkligen varva ner och koppla av.

Abbediet i Ambronay grundades år 800: det grundades av Barnard de Romans, militär, officer hos Karl den store och framtida helgon som helgonförklarades 944. Abbatialkyrkan, som byggdes på ruinerna av den karolingiska kyrkan, visar upp gargoyler, skulpturer och målningar som kommer att roa barnen med sina fascinerande detaljer. Klostret är en plats av lugn som inbjuder till meditation: din fantasi kanske kommer att jaga några spöklika munkfigurer. Besöket avslutas i trädgårdarna där du kommer att upptäcka medicinalväxter på den botaniska stigen. https://www.ain-tourisme.com/visiter-patrimoine/monuments-religieux-a-visiter-dans-l-ain/abbaye-benedictine-dambronay/

It was erected in the 15th century. Originally, it was just a modest oratory (half the size of the current chapel). At that time, Philip of Savoy fell from his horse near the site where the chapel was later built. His wife, Margaret of Bourbon, fearing for his life, vowed to build an oratory and a church in Brou if he survived. He recovered, but sadly, his wife died in 1483. It was therefore his second wife, Claudine de Brosse, also known as Claudine de Bretagne Penthièvre, who had the chapel built on the spot where her husband had his accident. Initially, it was a small oratory: a ribbed vault without any openings. It was Margaret of Austria, daughter-in-law of Margaret of Savoy, who fulfilled the second vow. In 1867, the chapel was enlarged and looted. A statue of the mother and child, which had been placed in a niche on the facade, was replaced by a painting. https://www.saintejulie.fr/chapelle-notre-dame-de-lorette/

A short climb that allows you to switch between the two villages, on one side the Albarine Green Way, on the other the start of the climb towards the Col de Porte!

Great road in a beautiful area. Lots of hikers and joggers.
