Hiking in Bugey: Crêtes de Sur Lyand by Bastien
March 07, 2024 · Community
très belle randonnée, réalisé ce jour avec 5/10cm de neige, très jolis paysages et points de vue à l'aller, le retour lui est très roulant, majoritairement en forêt reste très sympa. 3h45 pour nous avec 20min de pause et un bon rythme.
