Strong points
- Rhône river banks
- Parc de la Tête d'Or
- Place des Terreaux
- Quais de Saône
- Place Bellecour
Meet us in our store in Vieux-Lyon, a stone's throw from Place Bellecour. You'll meet your guide and we'll introduce you to our bikes and the rules of the road. We'll cross the Rhône River to reach the banks of the Rhône, with a magnificent view of the Presqu'Île, the Hôtel-Dieu and the Fourvière Basilica. This bike ride is 100% on secure cycle paths and lanes.
In just a few minutes, we'll be in the Parc de la Tête d'Or, one of our favorite spots. Lyon's true "green lung": 114 hectares of forests and gardens to the north of the city. One of Europe's most beautiful urban parks! This tour combines a moderate cruising pace for leisurely pedaling with stops where you can learn more about our city. We'll tell you all about Lyon's great history, as well as its legends and highlights. You'll also pass by the tropical greenhouses and the animal park (closed on Tuesdays). A visit to the Parc de la Tête d'Or is also an opportunity to learn more about biodiversity and endangered species.
The return journey takes you through the city center, still on cycle paths, and past such not-to-be-missed landmarks as the Opera House, Place des Terreaux with its Town Hall, and Place Bellecour.
