The Passerelle de la Barthelasse is a pedestrian bridge over the Rhône near Avignon, connecting the Île de la Barthelasse with the city center. It offers unobstructed views of the Palais des Papes and the Rhône's meanders. It's ideal for strolls and photo opportunities at sunset. On the island itself, orchards and bike paths invite you to explore.

View from Pont Édouard-Daladier to the Pont Saint-Bénézet

Highlight • Viewpoint

When approaching the city from the west, you automatically have to cross this bridge, which offers a spectacular view of the Avignon "skyline" and the Pont St Bénézet.

The Pont Saint-Bénézet was probably once, when the popes still resided in Avignon, the longest bridge in Europe and led over both arms of the Rhône to the papal palace. Unfortunately, only a fraction of the former arched bridge remains. If you would like to enter it, you unfortunately have to pay admission today.

View of Château de Châteauneuf-du-Pape and the Alps from Via Rhôna

Highlight • Viewpoint

Before crossing the counter-canal, the bridge is very high, offering a view all along the Rhône: to the north with a zoom we see the castle of Châteauneuf du Pape, and to the south the city of Avignon. And in the distance you can see the Alps, better contrasted if there is snow above.

April 25, 2025,Vom Ländle nach Mallorca: Orange nach Avignon – ViaRhôna

The route continues along the Rhône, gently flowing canals, and the shimmering waters of the Aygues River. The cycle path is in very good condition here, alternating between shady and open sections. In Caderousse, I'm greeted by the impressive, ten-meter-high wall built to protect against tidal waves. Here, I discover a fantastic patisserie and buy a baguette and chocolate croissant. …
