Junction between the Col des Sauvages, Cassettes, Pilon and many mountain bike trails. We can enjoy beautiful views of the surrounding forests and great tranquility on a very small road, it is literally peace.

A fairly busy road pass linking Tarare and Amplepuis. No big difficulty, both in terms of its length and its percentages. At the top we are in the village of the Savages.
