Map of the Rhône Valley

The Rhône Valley is located in eastern and southeastern France and follows the Rhône River, which passes through important cities and wine regions on its way to the Mediterranean. Lyon is the largest city in the area and a natural starting point for trips in the region, not least due to its location where the Rhône and Saône rivers meet.

The map shows how close the region's experiences are to each other: city life in Lyon, wine villages in Beaujolais, historic sites along the river and more southern environments with a more distinct Provençal character. This makes the Rhône Valley a rewarding area for both round trips and river cruises.
