Description

Starting from the church in Champanges, you'll reach the village of Larringes, then the hamlets of Féternes.

An easy walk to discover the different landscapes of the Gavot plateau.
The more curious will discover an imposing stone bowl, evidence of a prehistoric presence, and, near the Château-Vieux chapel, the lime tree planted in Sully's time, or the Gerbaz mill, which produced flour and oil until 1932.

Guided steps

0/ Start at Champanges church.
1/ Follow the main road towards Larringes. At "Saint Martin", turn right. Follow the narrow road to the Larringes soccer stadium.
