EDF Cruas power plant with mural

Highlight • Monument

The nuclear plant of Cruas on the Rhône River presents itself harmless, with a wind turbine generating a token renewable energy, in front of beautiful baby murals on a cooling tower, trying to distract from the menacing harm the nuclear cooling towers could signify. The plant is right along a well paved section of the ViaRhôna.

Baix - ViaRhôna

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The ViaRhôna around Baix is very beautiful. The village of Baix is peaceful.

La Payre, south of Le Pouzin

Highlight • River

Suspension bridge over La Payre. It is not as beautiful as the Himalayan footbridge of Rochemaure but it is still very useful.

Suspension Bridge Over the River

Highlight • Bridge

Another modern suspension bridge that sways over the river la Payre. Next to it is a ford that is probably only passable at low water.

View of Rochemaure

Highlight • Settlement

Rochemaure is a medieval village steeped in history. Its geographical location in the Rhône Valley, adjacent to the Drôme River, makes it a strategic location. Another unique feature of this characterful village is its exceptional landscape heritage. It is located at the foot of the Coiron Plateau mountains and an ancient volcano: Chenavari. It is one of the Ardèche villages with the most traces of its past. It boasts a significant historical heritage, with its 12th-century castle, 13th-century chapel, church, and 19th-century suspension bridge.
