Discover The Via Fluvia

The Via Fluvia is a cycling route that connects the Loire and the Rhône, two magnificent rivers that never meet. Spanning over 90 km of developed and secure paths, the route crosses three departments: Haute-Loire, Loire, and Ardèche. It's a route accessible to all, ideal for enjoying the surrounding landscapes.

Starting from Lavoûte-sur-Loire

Beginning your adventure in the gorges of the Loire, you will enjoy beautiful views from the "balconies of the Loire" in the first few kilometers of the route. Then, through the Emblavez, you'll discover the famous "sucs" of Velay, these peaks shaped by volcanic activity.

A route between nature and heritage

The Via Fluvia crosses Haute-Loire, Loire, and Ardèche, three territories with unique landscapes and environments. It’s an opportunity to discover different worlds, blending nature, history, heritage, and micro-adventures.

The route is the perfect occasion to recharge and travel differently. Take the time to stop and listen to the birds singing, observe the small heritage sites, and take in the landscapes around you. The region is full of hidden treasures, including picturesque villages, historic castles, and preserved natural sites.

The landscapes awaiting you are made up of volcanoes, forests, mountains, valleys, lakes, and rivers. By traveling the Via Fluvia, everyone can move at their own pace, meeting both nature and the men and women—producers, artisans, creators—who live there. More than just a collection of experiences, the Via Fluvia is an open-air museum!

Pedal with peace of mind

To make your journey along the Via Fluvia easier, we offer a customized passenger and bike transportation service.
