Lyon to Le Puy with a stroller

[Jenoveva]

Is it possible to walk from Lyon to Le Puy with a jogger stroller? My husband and I would like to walk this route with our 2-year-old son this fall and we would love to bring a stroller with us. Also, any information on this route would be super helpful! Thank you!

Hi! I use the app Komoot for finding my routes. I checked, since you can pick how you are going to go (hike, tour bicycle, mountain bicycle, etc) and chose the tour bike option. Looks like there is one that might meet your needs. This is mostly on a cycleway and a minimal 4km on state road...the road section in the image below is usually side roads, with minimal traffic (when using Komoot you can highlight the sections that are on road and zoom in to see what type of road they are)...you can check out eurovelo routes and cycling canal paths in as well for paths that might be more friendly for strollers

Have a great day!

The guides for the several routes "upstream" of Le Puy can be ordered here:

You can get current accommodation lists from the same site. It's a nice route, downhill from Geneva to the Rhone, and uphill from the Rhone to Le Puy. Bon Chemin!
