12th century castle in altitude with a view of the Loire valley, offering animations and demonstrations of birds of prey flights.

Perched on a rocky outcrop, the château (listed as a Monument Historique) rises to an altitude of 653 meters, offering splendid panoramic views over the Loire Valley. Access is via a footpath (accessible to baby carriages). Guided tours allow you to imagine yourself a few centuries ago, within the fortified walls of the site, which once defended the border between Auvergne and Forez. Don't miss the spectacular, interactive and educational demonstrations of birds of prey, presented by passionate falconers.

Spectaculaire sur son éperon rocheux et visible de loin, la visite vaut le détour notamment pour son spectacle de rapaces et ses nombreuses animations grâce à 2 associations de passionnés.

Superbe lieu
Accueil très bien, le spectacle avec les rapaces est très intéressant, les enfants ont adoré.
Château très beau également, magnifique vue.
Très bonne visite à faire en famille.
Attention pour se rendre au château il faut monter à pied sur environ un kilomètre (côte assez raide) sinon parking accessible en voiture si handicap ou nécessité.

Un château ???? qui renaît petit à petit. Du haut de la tour une vue imprenable sur La Loire et les villages. Je recommande le vol des rapaces et les explications interactives du fauconnier. Les hiboux, aigles, buses et chouettes passent très près des spectateurs lors des démonstrations.
