Gouanne of the Wolves

Magnificent point of view with bench. However, if you want a better view, you still have to work a few extra meters of elevation.

In a limestone slope east of Grésine Bay is the cave "Grotte des fées", accessible by rough stairs carved into the rock. The cave widens into six rooms with a total length of 31 meters. Don't forget your flashlight!

Highlight • Monument

The new Meyrieux cross offers a great view, but the cross itself is quite ugly if compared to the old wooden cross located a little lower.
