Named after one of France's largest rivers, Rhône is a department in the Rhône-Alpes region boasting an array of things to do, like boating, visiting vineyards and châteaux, exploring beautiful historic villages, and sipping Beaujolais wine. The confluence where the Saône River joins the Rhône in Lyon is a popular place for sightseeing, with many of the towns along both the rivers offering to bring you on boat trips to explore the region from the water. As you enter Beaujolais wine country noted for its Gamay noir grapes, you'll note that the young, light-bodied red wine is often treated like a white wine and served slightly chilled. With the Inspirock world travel planner, Rhone and other destinations across the globe can be made central to your personalized travel plans.
