Leaving Annonay, this section of the Via Fluvia goes through the woods, passing under several bridges and tunnels.

The retention dam, located between the municipalities of Saint-Pierre-de-Boeuf – from which it takes its name – and Saint-Maurice-l’Exil, crosses the natural arm of the Rhône (right arm), connecting the town of Saint-Pierre-de-Boeuf to the Île de la Platière on the left bank. The 140 m wide dam has six 20 m passes equipped with 12 m high gates, separated by 4 m thick concrete piers. The dam bridge is a 174 m long reinforced concrete girder bridge (168.80 m opening), with seven 28 m spans. Over a width of 8.80 m, it carries a 6 m long, two-lane, two-way roadway, bordered by two sidewalks lined with parapets made of mixed material (concrete-metal). The upstream sidewalk is separated from the roadway by a low wall. Shelters are located on the downstream side of the piers. The ViaRhône cycle path continues on both sides.

Built between 1879 and 1881, this viaduct once carried the railway. It is located right next to a former paper mill.

A good place to take a break with a view of spectacular kayakers. A large training center where you can see all kinds of boats. The access is a little complicated because the shortest route is blocked by a barrier. On the inside of the barrier there is a contact field that (sometimes) opens the barrier when you drive over it. Otherwise there is an easier access closer to the town of St. Pierre.
