The Rhone district

Known for its majestic and foaming river, the Rhone district will surprise you with its manifold picturesque landscapes, its protected areas, its ingenious gastronomy, the variety of local produce, the charm of its festivities and, of course, its urban wealth. The Grand Lyon, a dynamic and evolving town that is blooming around the two thousand year old city. The Beaujolais region unfolds all around, which in itself is an invitation to tour its mountains and green valleys, its acres of ancient vines, its Pierres Dorées region and its corners embracing the Saône. The Pilat Rhodanien, a nature reserve in the southwest of Lyon with protected sites and innumerable hiking possibilities is ideal for outdoor activities.
