Hiking between the Rhône and the vineyards: Tupin, Condrieu, Semons
18 km

Hiking between the Rhône and the vineyards: Tupin, Condrieu, Semons

This hike lets you discover the Rhône’s river banks in the protected area of Ile du Beurre, the old part of the village of Condrieu and beautiful viewpoints of the market gardening plain of Ampuis and the steep vineyards of Côte-Rôtie. From the car park, cross the Lyon road, go around the chapel, then take the Lyon road for a few metres to the South (towards Condrieu). Immediately, take the small road that goes down to the left (Chemin des Gravières), pass the railway tracks and continue on this small road (Chemin de l'île de la Chèvre). At the end, turn right, going along the river bank. 1- Take the bridge on the right which crosses this tributary and continue on the track which follows the other bank of the tributary. When there is a choice between the ViaRhôna and the pedestrian path, choosing the latter, you enter the protected area of Ile du Beurre. At the end of the path, pass over a bridge that spans the Bassenon stream, just before its confluence with the Rhône. Turn left off the bridge to reach a kind of promenade that serves as a nature observatory. 2- Continue along the right bank of the Rhône (towards the South). Pass between a campsite and the Rhône. A little before the end of the campsite, you’ll discover the river port of Roches-de-Condrieu on the other bank. At the entrance to Condrieu, after a large coloured house (pink), turn right to go down about twenty metres to Place du Razat (restored houses), then go back to the quay. At the next street (Rue du Grand Port), do the same (restored houses) and then return. You arrive at a very pleasant place at the edge of the Rhône, pass under the bridge which spans the Rhône and continue onto the quay. Take the first right, Rue de Sauze, and immediately left to follow the Rhône quay again. 3- After 2 big plane trees, turn right (at a right angle), Place du Raffour. This small street looks like a dead end, go to the end and take the narrow passage between a house and a large stone wall, continue on this passage which turns right then left. Pass under the small stone railway bridge. Continue straight on Rue Henri Barbuse, cross the RN86 and continue straight on Rue du Marché aux Fruits. 4- Just before the brook, turn right onto Rue Eugène Genet, then first right into Rue de la Croix and first left into Grande Rue. Take the covered passage on the left into Rue Saint-Martin (just after No.22), and when you arrive at Place du Marché, turn right and follow Rue de Belfort. Take the second left, Rue Saint-Étienne, which goes up under the town’s old fortification gate. Then take the first street on the left, until you reach Rue de la Visitation. Take this covered passage, then the first passage on the right, where you find Place du Marché, take a right to cross the Arbuel stream and immediately after the bridge, turn right onto Rue Claude de Villard. At the junction with Montée de la Caille (dead end sign), take the bridge on the right, and go straight on to Rue Ecorcheboeuf. At the end of the street, turn left twice to take the Montée des Recollets. At the cemetery, go down Montée de la Tour, which runs alongside the cemetery on the right. When you reach the D28 (Montée du Rozay), go up for about 20 metres and then turn right on a pedestrian path, Rue de la Croix de l'Oiseau. 5- At the crossroads (4 roads), turn left on Rue Cuvillière, then the first right onto Rue de Croyez. When you reach the RN86, turn right and then immediately left into Allée de la Bachasse, which you follow until you reach the banks of the Rhône. On the left, take the path that follows the river, follow the direction "Retour vers collège de Bassenon", follow the stream to pass under the RN86 road and the D124. When the path arrives at paved parking, turn left twice. Turn back at the traffic roundabout and take the D124 for fifty metres. Just after the stream, at the Condrieu sign, turn left and immediately right onto the marked mountain bike (VTT) path. 6- At the Bassenon road, go up via the road on the left, which offers beautiful views of the valleys behind Condrieu. The road makes a hairpin to the right, and you’ll find the path marked VTT on the left. 7- Continue on this mountain bike track until the village of Semons, head for the belvedere by Chemin du Belvédère (see the view over the market gardening plain of Ampuis, almost to Vienne). Walk all the way around the church, and behind the church, pass under a porch to take the wide path on the left (not marked) that starts to descend into the vineyards. 8- Take the first track on the left, which goes back to the road (D124). Turn right and go all the way down by the road to enjoy the terraced vineyards, keeping a very clear view of the plain. At the bottom of this road, arriving at the D386 (old RN86), you’ll find the car park where you started.

Musée des Verts

Musée des Verts

So who's the best? Why, the greens of course! This is the refrain that every Saint-Étienne supporter worth their salt has in their head, and to relive the legendary club's epic history, what could be better than a trip to the club museum, the Musée des Verts, at the mythical "Cauldron" stadium. France's first museum dedicated to a football club - and what a club -, it tells the story of the club since it was created by Geoffroy Guichard, founder of the Casino supermarket chain, where the A.S. Saint-Étienne sports club originated, to its first successes in the 1950s to the famous run of Green success in the 1970s and through to the present day. We all have our own memories of Saint-Étienne and the museum is guaranteed to bring them to the surface: the famous square goal posts, the boots worn by Rachid Mekloufi at the French Cup final in 1968, the 2013 League Cup, the flag from the 100th derby (won by the Greens!). In short, whether you're a fan or just curious, come and relive the high points in the history of a legendary club! Twice a year, a temporary exhibition is put on covering a different facet of the club's history and that of soccer in general. Matches on Fridays at 8.30 pm: museum open from 2.00 to 8.00 pm. Matches on Saturdays at 5.00 pm: museum open from 10.00 am to 4.30 pm. Matches on Saturdays at 8.00 pm museum open from 10.00 am to 7.30 pm. Matches on Sundays at 3.00 pm: museum open from 10.00 am to 2.30 pm and from 5.00 to 7.00 pm. Matches on Sundays at 5.00 pm: museum open from 10.00 am to 4.30 pm. Matches on Sundays at 9.00 pm museum open from 10.00 am to 8.30 pm. Also open from 10.00 to 12.00 on the day after match days.

Ca se mange sans fin - Fresque Ella et Pitr

How about we take a step off the beaten track when it comes to murals? No more gardens or trompe l’œil farms. In Sainté (Saint-Étienne to you), we have Ella and Pitr's giants. These are not there just to cover something up or as decoration, they're meant to have meaning. Modular, Urban, Reactive (MUR). Those 3 words sum up the work of artists Ella and Pitr, who've been spreading their brand of insolence and poetic charm around the city since 2007. 2 Saint-Étienne natives whose paint pots and souls have come together to create a unique style. Once you get over the initial shock (they are pretty imposing, our little giants), you'll find you can't get enough of them. You'll end up looking out for them on every street corner. Unusual characters, outsize dimensions, colours galore and always a message. A real one. That's the secret of their appeal. And it works. With their funny faces and disjointed limbs (maybe they should hold back on the osteopathy), the giants are at home here. Sometimes lying down, sometimes standing, asleep or just looking thoughtful, no two are the same and yet they are always recognisable. On the façade at Ateliers Weiss, they've really gone to town, treating us (and what a treat!) to an indulgent chocolate-related fresco! Chocolate is so lovely! Why deprive yourself? The fresco illustrates perfectly all the pleasure we get out of consuming it. In short, whether you are well-versed in art or a novice, Ella and Pitr's style will speak to you. In the heart of a city focused on innovation and modernity, it's the least you could ask for. These are not so much morals as XXL-sized slices of life. They're original and caustic. We're on board. We love 'em.

Châteaucreux Station Forecourt

Terminus, everybody off. Drop off your suitcases, but keep your camera. But be careful, though, there's a slightly odd blue horse hanging about in the area. It seems he's been eating the fruit from the multi-coloured tree. Welcome to Sainté! Ladies and gentlemen, we are arriving at Saint-Étienne Chateaucreux. We hope you have had a good journey. Just a word of advice before you leave the train: prepare to be blown over by what you see. See how nice we are (and that's not just a rumour, it's the truth) - we prefer to put you in the mood right away. You won't be able to say we didn't warn you. Because the Design adventure starts here on the station concourse for you and your little suitcase. The stools by designer François Bauchet, the Blue horses by sculptor Assan Smati, Philippe Million's Multi-coloured tree. No, no, you're not in an exhibition hall - unless you got off at the wrong stop. Although... actually, maybe you are. Maybe you are going to find out that this city, which really isn't like all the others, is going to overturn your habits and take you somewhere you weren't expecting. And that every street, every neighbourhood is reinventing itself to be part of this giant open-air gallery. Because it's true, it's a pretty bold move to put real works of art here and there around town rather than confining them to a nice, tidy box of a museum. And it's a smart one because, like that, they're impossible to miss. That's what they call modernity. QED.
