메질락 최고의 사이클링 경로

A small station for repairing and charging bicycles - with shady seating - near a small cafe/restaurant about 50m

Coming from Le Cheylard, this is the first and shortest of the four tunnels to Saint-Agrève.

It's time to take a break, for example.

Former Huguenot capital, Privas is one of the smallest prefectures in France. Nestled in the Ardèche Verte and gateway to the Monts d'Ardèche Regional Natural Park, the town has some notable buildings, such as the 15th century Diane de Poitiers tower and the Loius XIII bridge. “Capital of candied chestnuts”, it also shines with its chestnut puree and candied chestnuts which have earned it the label of “Remarkable site of taste”.

The view is beautiful on either side of the road.

Even if the greenway no longer passes over the bridge, it bears witness to the work carried out at the time to avoid a scree zone. More than 100 years after its construction and after having seen hundreds of trains pass by, it is still there, and that's so much the better!

Possibility of starting from the 3 stations in the region and thus completing one of the 3 sections of +_ 30km outward and possibly return depending on the time or desires. Accessible to all, be careful however it climbs all the time coming from the Rhône. Superb landscapes and very secure routes, accessible to all levels, gravel and vtc, quite a bit of gravel.

Privas is the capital of the Ardèche. Historically the city was one of the centers of French Protestantism during the Wars of Religion. It is also the birthplace of Clément Faugier who launched a company specializing in recipes based on the famous Ardèche chestnut at the end of the 19th century. Privas is therefore, with Aubenas, the capital of candied chestnuts and chestnut cream!
