Geography

The monts du Lyonnais' highest summit is the crêt Malherbe (934m).

The Janon river running east from Terrenoire (now part of Saint-Étienne) and then the Gier continuing east from Saint-Chamond to meet the Rhone at Givors create a valley in the coal basin that separates Mont Pilat from the Monts du Lyonnais.[1]
