Rochemaure Himalayan suspension bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This suspension bridge adds a bit of adventure to this ViaRhôna. Beware of the wind, however, which, if it blows strongly, can cause the structure to move.

April 28, 2023,Der Weg ist das Ziel - 18. Etappe: von Valence nach Montélimar
At roundabouts in cities, I, my bike computer and Komoot on my cell phone sometimes have a hard time. So it took a bit today for the three of us to understand how to get onto the right bike path after crossing the Rhone 🤷‍♀️. But then there were no more orientation problems. The Via Rhôna is well signposted, along …

From Montélimar we took the cycle path along the Roubion that led directly to the EV17 (Via Rhona). Then it went along the EV17 all the way to Valence.

The area is not as flat as it was a few days ago. Small hills rise to the left and right of the Rhone. In some places, rugged rocks are visible. …

In the morning, we go to the bicycle repair shop, which is run by a local association. Checking the air in the tires and blowing out the brakes is important. Thanks to our WS hosts, Gilbert and …

Storms and rain a plenty this morning. Woke at 6:20 with loud thunder overhead, now sitting on the loo waiting for a break in the rain to get back to my cycle tourers pod.

The storm was loud but not much rain so not too disruptive. With the rain comes specks of mud which is the dust coming from the …

After a stormy night in the hotel in Valence, we start the last stage. Our destination Montelimar. The weather forecast promises a dry morning until 4 p.m. We need a while until we find the entrance. Today we drive past plantations again, this time kiwis, pomegranates and giant pumpkins. The Rhône Cycle Path is described as one of the most …
