Sauvain

Sauvain occupies a mountain valley in the Monts du Forez, within France’s Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Above the settlement, the Hautes Chaumes du Forez form a broad upland of grassland and peat bogs, shaped by a demanding mountain climate. The commune is closely associated with Fourme de Montbrison, the blue cheese protected by an Appellation d’Origine Protégée and made in this part of the Forez. Small roads and walking routes lead towards high passes and summer grazing country, while the village remains rooted in the rural Loire department.
