Payre Greenway

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This greenway connected to the ViaRhôna gives a second life to the old railway line which went from Pouzins to Privas. Without difficulty and entirely asphalted, this bike ride passes by numerous interesting engineering structures: tunnels, viaducts, bridges, footbridges, hydraulic structures.

Suspension Bridge Over the River

Highlight • Bridge

Another modern suspension bridge that sways over the river la Payre. Next to it is a ford that is probably only passable at low water.

La Payre, south of Le Pouzin

Highlight • River

Suspension bridge over La Payre. It is not as beautiful as the Himalayan footbridge of Rochemaure but it is still very useful.

Baix - ViaRhôna

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The ViaRhôna around Baix is very beautiful. The village of Baix is peaceful.

EDF Cruas power plant with mural

Highlight • Monument

The nuclear plant of Cruas on the Rhône River presents itself harmless, with a wind turbine generating a token renewable energy, in front of beautiful baby murals on a cooling tower, trying to distract from the menacing harm the nuclear cooling towers could signify. The plant is right along a well paved section of the ViaRhôna.

Cycle tour Viviers Ardeche along the Rhone

Highlight • Other

The La Cruas power plant on the banks of the Rhône River impresses with its industrial architecture and mighty cooling towers. Guided tours offer fascinating insights into power generation and safety technology. The surrounding area invites you to stroll along the riverbank. A fascinating place for technology enthusiasts and photography enthusiasts alike.

Along the Rhône to the nuclear power plant

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Nice bike path, mostly along the Rhône, small picnic area at Meysse.
Unfortunately, at some point the nuclear power plant Cruas comes into view.

View of Rochemaure

Highlight • Settlement

Rochemaure is a medieval village steeped in history. Its geographical location in the Rhône Valley, adjacent to the Drôme River, makes it a strategic location. Another unique feature of this characterful village is its exceptional landscape heritage. It is located at the foot of the Coiron Plateau mountains and an ancient volcano: Chenavari. It is one of the Ardèche villages with the most traces of its past. It boasts a significant historical heritage, with its 12th-century castle, 13th-century chapel, church, and 19th-century suspension bridge.
