Very good route to learn mountain biking. Relatively flat route. Two fairly steep climbs but with a fairly wide path. The route follows roads but only for a reasonable distance. A point of danger: crossing N7 at Auberives sur Vareze.

The pond of Grand Gois offers a very bucolic setting. It's a great gravel spot.
