A stroll through the heart of the Châteauguay vineyards, where vines run on terraces and cellars crest the hillsides. Higher up, on the plateau where shepherds once tended their sheep, you’ll overlook Châteauguay and the Château de Tournoël.

– View of the Michelin test tracks at Ladoux.
– Champ-Griaud plateau.
– Thematic terminal on cellars.
Étape 1 : From the start sign, take the path towards the antenna (right: orientation table). At the crossroads, go straight ahead (after 100 m, you’ll see the Michelin test tracks at Ladoux). At the cross, leave the track, take the path to the right and descend into the woods. At the end of the descent, take the left-hand path to the fork (signpost).
Étape 2 : Turn left towards Plateau de Champ-Griaud; at the fork, 30 m further on, turn left, continue to the T-junction and fork right. Keep right as far as the dry-stone hut theme marker.
Étape 3 : Go straight ahead and keep to the right as far as the T-junction. Take the stony path on the left, and then leave it for a smaller path on the right (on the left is a theme marker with views of Châteaugay, Puy de Dôme and Clermont-Fd). Continue to point 1 and go 30 m in the opposite direction to the outward journey before turning left. Stay on the main road until you reach the village entrance (theme marker on the cellars). Turn right into rue du Chalard, then rue de Bellevue to reach the starting point.
From 01/01 to 31/12 daily.
