10 Bridges in Rhône-Alpes That You Shouldn't Miss

January 5, 2022 Enriqueta Cusson

From the rare truffles of the Drôme to the vineyards of Beaujolais, the Rhone-Alps reveal the treasures of French cuisine. Gastronomic pleasures are complemented by the lush countryside, filled with fields of lavender. UNESCO-designated Lyon has first-century Roman ruins and the 19th-century Basilica of Fourvière. Forts and castles dot the landscape around Grenoble. Work off excess calories on the slopes of Chamonix and Megève. Visit during fall to take advantage of the grape harvest and many festivals.

Passerelle Paul Couturier

Reviewed By 750dimitrisl - Sydney, Australia

Passerelle Paul Couturier is a 19th century footbridge. It is one of many footbridges but this one is actually one of the better looking ones! The views from the middle of the bridge are really wonderful. Worth a visit.

A lovely walk to end a very happy day spent in these small towns. Wish we’d walked over during the day when there would have been sufficient light for photos.

Pont des Amours

Reviewed By jones_cusve - Geneva, Switzerland

«Pont des amours» (loves bridge) From this bridge you can make amazing picture of «lac d’Annecy». Not only this bridge but the lake of Annecy is a romantic place in every season! You can have a picnic in the park. Rent a boat. Swim in the crystal clear lake. A nice walk around the water.. a hot wine (vin chaud) on this romantic bridge, while watching the view... I come often because I don’t live that far away.

Pont du Diable

Reviewed By hollyblue5 - Thatcham, United Kingdom

Worth making the effort to find this place, it is stunning. Wear watershoes, put your phone in a waterproof case and go for your own mini canyoning swim/hike/ clamber up stream. The water is freezing but the sun is hot. And afterwards buy an ice cream at the Via Ferrata desk and watch the dare devils tombstone off the bridge.
