Itinerary

This 6.2 km route allows you to discover different points of interest in the town of L'Étoile.

Going up to the remains of the church of Saint-Jacques le Majeur, bordered by the old cemetery, you can admire the fabulous panorama over the valley, which is offered to you.

You go around the oppidum called "Caesar camp" a little higher up, before descending through the Bois des Six towards the village.

Halfway through, the village café offers a well-deserved break.

The city of Moulins Bleus is then offered to you, 720 meters long, and takes you, passing in front of the factory of the same name, on the towpath, the cycle route.

Following it in the direction of the bridge, you then go to the right in the rue du Docteur Richard, and you will discover a little further on the house which was witness to the story of Paola Marié and Monsieur Cornard. Then go into the Ruelle Fringuette then join the Rue du 8 Mai and the old Auberge du Colvert and its surprising Fakir.

We wish you a good ride.
