What if your next breath of fresh air started on a station platform?

From Lyon or Geneva, set off on a car-free adventure with our selection of hikes accessible by train. In less than an hour by train and less than 45 minutes' walk from Ain's train stations, treat yourself to a day or longer nature getaway.

Stroll along the Rhône or through the bucolic landscapes of the Val de Saône, follow trails to secret waterfalls and wild rivers, cross the Retord plateau to the summit of Grand Colombier (1,501 m)...

There's so much to discover, and all of it in the comfort of your own home!

Explore our itineraries and let yourself be carried away... by the train.
