The feel of the route
These two passes are very well known to the cyclists who stay at the centre. The route we suggest climbs up the Couzon valley to reach Vollore-Montagne, before continuing to La Chamba and the Col de la Loge. It then drops back down to Chalmazel before tackling the highest pass in the Forez, the Col du Béal at 1,390 m.
