Castles and Lake St-Félix
An open hike with two castles to contemplate, then a second, more wooded section offering a beautiful panorama of the lake.
From the station, follow the signs to the start of the hike along the D1006 (300m).
From the car park, follow the yellow signs and the following signposts:
Chemin Pascal > Les Croisettes > Le Corza > Château de la Mure > St-Didier-de-la-Tour > Le Bout du Lac > Bois Chaboud > back to ST-ANDRE-LE-GAZ
From the car park, cross the D1006 and take rue Ampère. As you climb up, look out on your right for the Haut-Verel stone castle with its round towers and Dauphin roof. From above, you can see the Bugey, Monts du Chat and Chartreuse mountains.
Then head back down towards the square-roofed castle of La Mûre and then St-Didier de la Tour. Cross the D1006 again and take the road and then the path to the south of Lac St-Felix, classified as a Sensitive Natural Area. This natural glacial lake is a great place to spot the agile frog, as well as numerous birds and butterflies. The path is located in the forest and offers a beautiful view of the lake at its end. Follow the partly shaded path to Bois Chaboud and then the road back to the start.
