アヴィニョンのおすすめランニングルート

Built between 1854 and 1857, the Galas aqueduct allows the Carpentras canal to cross the Sorgue River near Fontaine-de-Vaucluse. While the structure's 13 arches are already imposing from the valley, walking or cycling along the top of the aqueduct alongside the canal, 24 meters above the ground, is truly impressive and well worth the effort; the view is magnificent.

Avignon city centre itself is quite nice, I recommend passing through during a bike ride, it's worth it!

Avignon's old town impresses with its narrow streets, historic squares, and the imposing Papal Palace. The completely preserved 14th-century city walls can be walked on in sections. Visitors can enjoy picturesque views of the Rhône River via the famous Pont Saint-Bénézet. Museums such as the Musée du Petit Palais display medieval art right in the historic center.

The Pont Saint-Bénézet in Avignon dates back to the 12th century and still towers over four of its original 22 arches. Visitors can walk through the remains of the bridge and view the historic bridge houses. The bridge offers a unique view of the Rhône and Avignon's old town. It is closely linked to the well-known children's song "Sur le Pont d'Avignon" and the city's medieval history.

The Papal Palace (Palais des Papes) dominates Avignon and is one of the largest Gothic buildings in Europe. The Pont Saint-Bénézet, famous from the song "Sur le pont d'Avignon," offers historic architecture overlooking the Rhône. The Musée du Petit Palais displays works by Italian and Provençal masters. Narrow streets in the old town invite strolls among medieval houses and small squares.
