Garon siphon bridge — Roman aqueduct of the Gier

Highlight • Bridge

This siphon bridge is part of the Roman Aqueduct of Gier, one of the four aqueducts built to supply Lyon with water. Located on the banks of the Garon, this piece of heritage blends perfectly into the bucolic setting.

Aqueduc Romain du Gier

Highlight • Other

The remains of the Roman aqueduct have been carefully restored, and in addition to the perspective on the work of art, they also present a view of the Monts du Lyonnais, the Monts d'Or and the outskirts of Lyon.

May 26, 2023,[Gravel #15] Rebelote dans le Garde-manger lyonnais

The opportunity to share with my ride buddy this beautiful loop already done last week.
With an "optimized" earth start, and a simplified return, more gravel by eliminating the ascent to Fort du Bruissin.
A real pleasure, there it is well optimized for a departure from TDL
Otherwise, the cherries are coming, but that's not it yet :-)

May 19, 2023,[Gravel #11] Viron dans le garde-manger lyonnais

A very nice sequence stung on Strava. A route that is worth points, to be redone .... Ah ah the single between Grandes Terres and Chatetre !! I understood the bag under the top-tube is used to store the pruning shears and the saw :-) In any case, I found some interesting connections, which of course you don't take on …

October 2, 2025,[Grvl #2569] Vergers et coteaux lyonnais

Classified in the 39% unpaved category, an interesting ratio.
Classic gravel in the countryside with a few rough, almost TT-friendly sections.
Guaranteed no portage and no mud baths.
Cleaned trail, elevation gain recorded with GPS = 826m
Enjoy

June 24, 2025,[Grvl #2533] Best of Coteaux du Lyonnais (remake 2023)

Well, well! In 2023, after 30 gravel rides, I have the nerve to label a ride "Best of" when I'm just discovering the sport! Will I maintain this label in 2025 after 7,800 km of gravel?
Note: I wrote Coteaux du Lyonnais and not Monts du Lyonnais. This trail winds through orchards and passes through a few villages in the …

August 7, 2023,[Gravel #29] Best of des coteaux lyonnais

A sequence in the hillsides of western Lyon which is refined from exit to exit .... keeping the best ....
It flirts with the Monts-du-Lyonnais without ever climbing them.
This topo is to be done in dry weather since it includes after passing the Saint-Vincent Chapel a TT section on the banks of the Furon which becomes very greasy after …
