Les Balades à Roulettes® (Walks on Wheels)

Les Balades à roulettes® (BR®) are short and quiet walks that can be done without difficulty.

The routes have been specially selected to make outdoor walking easier for:

  • people in wheelchairs or with difficulty moving on rough terrain
  • families with strollers or accompanied by children with tricycles, scooters, or small bicycles

 

The criteria for these walks are as follows:

  • offering a wide path, without significant elevation changes, with a sufficiently smooth surface and
  • no car traffic
  • having parking available
  • offering short circuits between 500m and 4km, structured as loops, out-and-back routes, or “star” routes (i.e., different hikes but with a common starting point)

he BR® trail maps are available as downloadable PDF files (see list at the bottom of the page). Pictograms indicate the accessibility of each route and the amenities available nearby: benches, tables, restrooms, water fountains, etc.

 

The maps also provide tourist information: presence of a lake or stream, fishing area, children’s playground, interesting flora and fauna, swimming, nearby village, heritage sites, and places to eat (with information on wheelchair accessibility).

Note:

  • The BR designers and FFRandonnée (French Hiking Federation) list the routes. They cannot, under any circumstances, be held responsible for any accidents.
  • The routes are safe, but children remain under the responsibility and supervision of their parents.
  • All the trails have been tested and are wheelchair accessible, but muddy sections after rain or slight inclines (indicated in the description) cannot be ruled out.
  • For the enjoyment of these walks, it is recommended that people with reduced mobility be accompanied.
