This passarelle is for pedestrians; you would have to carry the bike to climb the stairs.
The site of the Saône parade draws on 2.9 km, left bank, a wide curve, portion of the river which constitutes an emblematic, picturesque and historic image of the city of Lyon. The promenade of the Saône parade runs along an environment of great heritage where the history and geography of the city meet. It thus faces the oldest part of the city, Old Lyon, overlooked by the Fourvière hill and runs along the historic heart of the city, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
In addition to the Renaissance facades of Old Lyon, the route offers a beautiful point of view on a large number of historic buildings, in particular the primatiale of Saint-Jean, the old Palace of Justice, but also the Basilica of Fourvière, while the shore left, it runs along the quai Saint-Antoine and its daily market (2nd market in Lyon). lesrivesdesaone.com/au-fil-de-leau/promenade-du-defile-de-la-saone

Old Lyon

Highlight • Settlement

Old Lyon is an enchanting district that exudes history and charm. Its cobbled streets, medieval buildings and mysterious traboules transport visitors to another time. Strolling through its streets, admiring the colorful facades and discovering its small traditional shops is an experience in its own right. In addition, the Lyonnais Bouchons, famous for their generous and tasty cuisine, make Vieux Lyon an essential place for food lovers. Whether for its medieval atmosphere, its architectural treasures or its gastronomy, Old Lyon is a real gem to explore.
