Place Bellecour walks

This route allows you to walk along the banks of the Saône on the way there and the Rhône on the way back. Along the way, we will enjoy the sights of the peninsula (the writers' wall, the Lyonnais wall, Place des Terreaux, the town hall, the opera house). Halfway through, we will walk around the Parc de la Tête d'Or.

Starting from the Basilica of Fourvière (or Place Bellecour), the route allows you to enjoy the most beautiful views of the city. You will pass by many of Lyon's must-see churches, monuments and theatres. You will climb up to Croix-Rousse through almost all of the traboules (covered passageways) on the hill. A truly peaceful route with virtually no cars.

Ce circuit permet de découvrir le centre lyonnais ainsi que les quartiers de Fourvière, Vieux-Lyon et Croix-Rousse, avec une descente de Croix-Rousse par quelques traboules.
