Overlooking the Forez Plain, this route winds through vineyards, wooded valleys, and volcanic peaks... The Pic de St-Romain-le-Puy, Montsupt, the Vidrieux Pond, Viel Ecotay, and the Comtale capital mark the highlights of this journey.
A 3-day hiking trip around St-Romain-le-Puy, Boisset-Saint-Priest, St-Georges-Haute-Ville, and Montbrison.
The Côtes du Forez AOP stretches south of Montbrison along the hillsides, between the villages of St-Romain-le-Puy and St-Marcellin-en-Forez. This walking tour will take you from one hilltop to the next—a legacy of the Tertiary period and ideal terrain for Gamay and Viognier grapes. A few picturesque villages and the county seat will add charm to this wine-tasting journey.
