Search Visit

Located in SE France between Paris and the French Riviera, the Rhone-Alps region is home to Mont Blanc (the highest peak in Europe), four natural parks, and the Massif Central plus vineyards, endless lavender fields and a number of rivers and lakes, creating an environment with a variety of activities for travelers. In addition to sea, summer and spa resorts, visitors may explore the historic "Route Napoleon", retracing the path taken by the emperor on his return from the island of Elbe. The region's capital city, Lyon, is an extraordinary cultural treasury, its historic city center listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The region is also well known for its gastronomy and its local wines, most notably Beaujolais and Cotes-du-Rhone.
