Allymes Castle

Highlight • Castle

Allymes Castle is the only example of a medieval fortress in Bugey. Overlooking Ambérieu-en-Bugey, it is built on a mountain 650 meters above sea level. Its geographical location offers a breathtaking view of Savoyard Bresse and Dombes. As a strategic stronghold, it protected the entrance to Savoy, which was an independent state at the time.

nice walk in the forest, with very nice trails.
In summer, if you're looking for a bit of freshness, it's really very good.

Blue Lake

Highlight • Other

Lots of trails and shaded paths in the woods. On the other hand, it is preferable not to take at the start,
the path above the Abèanches is very steep.
It’s best to start at the source of the roach.
Nice circuit with very few roads.
