This tour is brought to you by the Valence Tourist Office. A document is available on our premises!

This circuit not only runs alongside several canals, but also links up 4 of the town's main natural areas. This green corridor through the Jouvet, Tinitaires, Marcel Paul and Epervière parks will lead you to the marina.
Enjoy the view of the Ardèche mountains from the marina. The return journey takes in a section of the Via-Rhôna, the itinerary that runs along the Rhône between Lake Geneva and the Mediterranean.
