サン＝ロマン＝ダイドー周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

A truly beautiful stretch of the route! The stunning scenery and excellent cycle paths make cycling on the ViaRhôna a special experience! :-)

This charming castle is composed of three towers. The oldest appears to be the keep, a rectangular tower accessed from the first floor. Only a few narrow openings illuminate the interior. Its floors were entirely wooden. It is believed to have been built around 1360 by Cardinal de Colombier, lord of the manor. The round tower to the southeast, with its horizontal arrow slits, dates from the 15th century. This tower contains dungeons. The third, more recent tower dates from the early 16th century. Buildings adjoining the keep form a Renaissance residential wing. Another building was added or repaired at an even later date, in the 17th or 18th century.

Andancette on the Rhône River captivates with its tranquil setting between rolling vineyards and the mighty river. A stroll along the riverside promenade offers idyllic views and birdwatching opportunities. The historic Saint-Pierre Church lends the town a charming character. Local markets invite you to sample regional specialties and wines. Perfect for travelers seeking to combine nature, culture, and French serenity.

I just rode the ViaRhôna from September 3rd to 12th, between Romans and Sète. Beautiful scenery and villages. But the track quality is very uneven. Sometimes excellent, with impeccable surface and signage. Sometimes deplorable, shared tracks not maintained, sporadic signage, we go around in circles in some towns... And the biggest hassle is the train ride back, with no chutes in the underground stairs when changing platforms. Unpack the panniers, carry the (electric) bikes, and depending on the carriage, climb three steps! Thanks, SNCF.

Beautiful section of the ViaRhôna, which runs directly alongside the river in the countryside.

The ViaRhôna, or VR17, runs beautifully along the banks of the Rhône.

Super nice route by bike. Tarred throughout and therefore also great for racing cyclists! Coming from Annonay, you first drive briefly on the normal road and turn off it before it leads uphill again (and becomes multi-lane). Then comes this stretch that doesn't want to end and looks like a little paradise: the stream called below, trees, birds, shady passages, no traffic, gentle gradient, .... Can certainly also be driven uphill very well. Be sure to plan!
