The Via Rhôna: A picturesque cycle route

To begin our cycling adventure, we'll be taking the Via Rhôna, a well-developed cycle path that runs along the banks of the Rhône. This safe, well-maintained cycle route is ideal for cyclists of all abilities. Cycling along the Via Rhôna, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the river, the green countryside and the charming surrounding villages.

Discovering the Méribel-Jonage lake

After a pleasant stroll along the Via Rhôna, you'll reach Lac de Méribel-Jonage. This vast body of water, covering more than 350 hectares, is a real natural gem in the Lyon region. Surrounded by lush green forests and meadows, the lake is the ideal place to relax and recharge your batteries.

A well-deserved break

Once you've arrived at the lake, take time to put down your bikes and stop to admire the panoramic view. You can choose to relax on the banks of the lake, enjoy an open-air picnic or even take a refreshing dip in the warmer months. Nature lovers will also be able to spot a wide variety of birds and wildlife that inhabit the surrounding area.

Once you've enjoyed your cycling adventure, it's time to head back to our Lyonnaise bike hire office. You can choose to return by the same route, following the Via Rhôna, or explore other paths to vary the pleasures. Either way, the return journey will give you the chance to continue enjoying the beauty of the surrounding countryside until you return to our bike hire office.

So strap on your helmet, hop on your bike and set off for an unforgettable day out in the heart of Lyon's countryside. Who knows, maybe this day will inspire you to set off on a greater adventure along the ViaRhôna! We have partners in Thonon-Les-Bains, Montélimar and Sète to drop off your Paulette bikes!
