More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The cobbles of Vieux‑Lyon flash under the Segway's wheels as guides give last-minute tips and the Rhône hums nearby, daring you to follow its curve. Riders leave the Mobilboard shop by Cathédrale Saint‑Jean and roll through narrow lanes, past painted façades and the squares that have watched Lyon change for centuries.

Lyon grew from a Roman settlement at the confluence of the Rhône and Saône and later became Europe’s silk‑weaving center; the city’s traboules and canuts reflect that industrial and social history.
Conservation
