8 million years ago, the Ardèche river flowed in a valley of which Rochemaure was the confluence with the Rhône.
Volcanic activity blocked this valley to give rise to the Coiron and the dyke where the Rochemaure castle is located.
All the hills around Rochemaure are basaltic.

Öffentliche Quelle mit frischem Wasser

Highlight • Structure

A spring that flows all year round with strong water pressure is channeled here to a well with around 10 filling pipes. According to locals, the owner of the land on which the spring is located has given it to the municipality on the condition that it is always available to the public free of charge. Many people come with bottles and canisters to get their drinking water here. The little detour from the Via Rhona is definitely worth it.

View of Rochemaure

Highlight • Settlement

Rochemaure is a medieval village steeped in history. Its geographical location in the Rhône Valley, adjacent to the Drôme River, makes it a strategic location. Another unique feature of this characterful village is its exceptional landscape heritage. It is located at the foot of the Coiron Plateau mountains and an ancient volcano: Chenavari. It is one of the Ardèche villages with the most traces of its past. It boasts a significant historical heritage, with its 12th-century castle, 13th-century chapel, church, and 19th-century suspension bridge.

One of many hydroelectric power stations on the Rhône River. From the nearby parking lot you have a beautiful view of the power plant, the fish passage and the further course of the Rhône. Deviating from the paved cycle route is worth it!
