Nyons

Nyons lies beautifully in the heart of Drôme Provençale, at the border of the lowland and the mountains.

To the east rise the Pre Alps with heights of 1000 metres or more and to the west the landscape changes character towards the plains of the Rhône.
The old bridge in Nyons

Nyons is, with its 6,500 inhabitants, one of the main towns in the region.

It is situated at 270 metres altitude, looking south and well protected, by two mountain ranges, from the Mistral wind, which blows through the Rhône valley from the north. Nyons is set in lush countryside by the Eygues river, surrounded by lavender fields, olive groves and vineyards, close to the famous wines of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas.

Nyons is not overrun by tourists and the town and its region do not give the impression of being worn down by too many visitors.

La Tour Rondonne

The medieval “grand” village of Nyons has a great many attractions.

The beautiful old bridge, crossing high over Eygues dates from the 14th century. It is fairly narrow, but it is still in use. Don’t miss crossing the bridge by foot and enjoy the spectacular views of beautiful landscape to all sides. In Nyons you will find several pretty squares such as Place de la Libération, with its many plane trees, and Place du Dr. Bourdongle, with its arcades full of all kinds of shops. One of the town’s most curious sights is the streets and alleys around Rue des Grands Forts. The streets all lead to the town’s old forts which are built into the fortifications. Walking in Rue des Grands Forts or especially in its parallel street, is a walk under covered vaulted passages which have been inhabited for centuries. A stroll through these narrow alleys is like a travel back in time.
