Old Village of Lens

Highlight • Settlement

The old part of the village is very pleasant with many old wooden houses. A walking tour of the old village is well worth the detour.

Path Along the Rhône With Views of Terraced Vineyards

Highlight • Cycleway

Here you can cycle along a quiet cycle path between the golf course and the Rhone. On one side you can see the orchards and on the other side you can admire the steep slopes with their equally neat vines.
