What are the essential places for a Segway tour in Lyon?

At Mobilboard, our core business is to make you visit the city in a different way thanks to the soft modes of transport. We take you to discover Lyon through several urban adventures. Here are some of our favorite places that you can visit during your Segway rental.

The Banks of the Rhône

This is a bit of a must on all of our Segway tours. The banks of the Rhône are 7 kilometers long! This landscaped walkway is a greenway where the famous ViaRhôna between Geneva and the Mediterranean passes.

The park of the Golden Head

One of our favorite places! With its 114 hectares of greenery, it is the "green lung" of Lyon. You can take a beautiful Segway tour of the park, passing by the tropical greenhouses and the animal park.

The banks of the Saône

One of the advantages of Lyon is that it has a river that runs through it. You are bound to fall under the charm of the banks of the Saône. Between the footbridges, the charm of the colored buildings on both banks and a break at the Vieux-Lyon, you will have a nice ride on a Segway or other along the Saône.

The Confluence

This is one of the most unusual districts of Lyon. Accessible by the Presqu'île, the banks of the Rhône or the quays of the Saône, it is for the people of Lyon the "end of the world"! It is a former industrial area totally reconverted into an eco-district. You will also find the remnants of this past with the cranes and warehouses of the old port of Lyon or those of the old Marché-Gare.
