Pont des Arméniers

Magnificent suspension bridge linking the Sorgaise bank of the Rhône to the island of Oiselay. The bridge dates from 1926 but has been out of use since the 1970s.

Remarkable avenue of plane trees

Highlight • Cycleway

What a pleasure to ride in the shade of these possibly century-old plane trees. An alley like you hardly see anymore. This section is on a ViaRhona (VR) route

Since there are no drinking water stations on the Rhône Cycle Route, this rest area is very convenient. It offers a pleasant atmosphere and reasonable/normal prices. Plus, there's plenty of shade.
