Natural Zoom

The « Haut-Rhône » National Nature Reserve extends to 25 kilometers between and the natural parade of Malarage. It represents the largest Forest River Reserve of France. Upstream from Lyon, between the southern tip of the Bugey and the hills of Dauphiné, the Rhône river filled, with its alluviums, a huge lake created with the melting of the quaternary icecaps. The river rambled during several centuries, creating countless branches, locally called « Lônes », before being canalized. The Guiers-Rhône confluence in Aoste or the ViaRhona permits to experience and feel this atmosphere. With the discovery of the Lônes in Kayaks or in stand-up paddles, you will be immersed in the Rhône river’s jungle atmosphere.
