Hiking - Sentier de Pécoutioux - St-Julien Molin Molette No. 1

Beautiful views over the village and its factories. The return journey is on the Way of St. James trail.

Take the Montée de Drevard (to the left of the town hall square) up to the D8 road. Follow the D8 towards Colombier, then take the Chemin de Coron on your left.


Leave the hamlet of Coron on your right and take the uphill path on the left towards Bel Air and Pécotioux (very beautiful panoramic view of St-Julien).


Almost at the summit, after the last switchback, at an electricity pylon, take the path on the left towards Pécoutioux. After the farm on the plateau, the path descends towards Les Oriols. As you leave the woods (beautiful panorama), continue on the path to your right.


At Les Oriols, follow the paved road to Lampony.


At Lampony, follow the GR 65 waymarkers to return to St-Julien. Along the way, you will discover the Calvary site.

Everyone is responsible for their own safety. Therefore, you undertake these hikes at your own risk. Please stay on the waymarked trails to protect fragile environments.


General recommendations:



  • Check the weather forecast before you set off

  • Some routes cross busy roads: Be careful

  • Keep dogs on a leash

  • Do not light fires

  • Take your litter home with you

  • Enjoy the flowers, but do not pick them.

  • Tick bites can cause serious diseases; for prevention: wear long clothing, use repellents, check yourself upon return, remove ticks with a tick remover tool without applying anything to them, and consult a doctor in case of visible redness, flu-like symptoms, or if you are in a high-risk group.

  • For emergency services, dial 18 or 112.
