With its distinctive church architecture, a chapel overlooking the Monts du Beaujolais, wine tastings and scenic trails, Létra offers a variety of starting points for a trip. You can make culture, scenery or food and wine the focus of your visit.
Churches and views
The Église Saint-Martin de Létra is distinguished by an octagonal dome tower crowned with an onion-shaped roof. The combination of these two forms gives the church a striking architectural feature. The Chapelle Notre-Dame-de-la-Salette is also part of Létra’s cultural identity: it is a local example of Marian devotion.
The Chapelle de la Salette is set in green surroundings and offers remarkable views from northeast to southeast over the Monts du Beaujolais. Information about its history and an orientation board complement the view with historical and geographical context. At the chapel, landscape and culture are thus brought together in a tangible way.
Scenery and routes
The area around Létra lies between a wine-growing landscape and areas of deciduous and coniferous woodland. The Le bois des Avenières route follows the foothills of the Beaujolais vert; its features include sweeping panoramic views and scenic hillside paths. It starts at 50 Chemin des Ecoliers in Létra.
The Au plus près de l’Azergues PR® route offers a different perspective, with a viewpoint overlooking the village of Létra. This gives you two distinct options: the panoramic views and hillside paths of one route, or the view of the village on the other. Check the route details for Au plus près de l’Azergues PR® again before setting out.
Wine and storytelling experiences
The Oedoria wine shop in Létra offers tastings of wines from Beaujolais and Burgundy, along with local products. The tastings give wine enthusiasts a practical reason to include two different wine regions in their travel plans; the local products add to this food-and-wine focus.
Diszy offers narrative and staged tours, as well as entertaining and educational activities. These tours and activities appeal to different interests in how to shape an experience: through storytelling and staging in one case, and through entertainment and learning in the other. Specific topics or duration are not the criteria for choosing; what matters is which type of offering appeals to you.
Choose Létra as your destination
