Walking in Lyon
Lyon packs two thousand years of history into a peninsula and two hills. Its old town is a UNESCO-listed maze of Renaissance courtyards and secret passageways, and the whole centre is small enough to cover on foot in a weekend.
Terrain. The Presqu'île and Vieux Lyon are flat. Fourvière rises roughly 150 metres above the Saône and the Croix-Rousse about 100 metres above the Presqu'île; both have funiculars or a metro line, and both are steep on foot.
Surfaces. Cobbles throughout Vieux Lyon and on many of the Croix-Rousse stairways. Wear shoes with grip, especially in wet weather.
