Very nice cyclist bridge over the Rhône. It could become slippery in icy and wet conditions.

If camping were possible, it would be a great idea on the bike path.

Public toilets are located behind the lodges in the parking lot for cars and campers. We find far fewer public toilets on the Via Rhona than on the Atlantic coast (Normandy, Brittany, Velodyssee).

A pleasant place to stop and have a picnic on the ViaRhôna cycle path.

Mont de Cordon is a 401m high mountain. It houses the Château de la Barre which dominates the Rhône and would have once controlled its passage. For only 401m in height, it offers spectacular views.

This small but perfectly formed lake will add interest to any course.
