It extends over a massif located south of Beaujolais and is also classified as a sensitive natural area.
Many hiking trails criss-cross it: the GR®P du Tour des Pierres Dorées, the GR®76 and short hiking trails taken from map guides. Fun workshops made of wood. The visitor is invited to soak up the atmosphere of the forest while contemplating the natural heritage it conceals.

Author’s recommendation

An ideal outing for the whole family!

Since the 1st of February, the belvedere of the Cantini forest has been inaugurated. Situated in the path of the Forêt des expériences, the installation offers a breathtaking view of the green Beaujolais and the Pyramid massif. A breathtaking panorama!
