Metal bridge that spans the Garon. Depending on its light, this place becomes very bucolic.

April 13, 2024,Brindas/Chaponost la campagne Lyonnaise

For an afternoon, a little family spring getaway in the beautiful and gentle Lyon countryside, between Brindas and Chaponost to discover natural spaces. At the bend of a path, we observe sometimes meadows sometimes woods. You will surely come across a lot of horses.
(Too bad for the last 2Km, a little too much steepness for my taste)
