We are going to play...
This nautical sport, especially practiced in Europe, is appreciated by locals and visitors alike who enjoy seeing the opponents of the two teams (blue and red) compete.
The principle is simple: two jousters with spears are on the back of the boat. The rowers advance the boats until the jousters can begin the pass. The first to fall in the water loses!
In summer, every Wednesday afternoon, you can attend the jousting training from the bleachers of the jousting pool.

To find a bit of freshness, push open the door of the Musée des Mariniers. Located in an old church, it is dedicated at the Rhone shipping lane : these boats drawn by horses on the banks of the river. At the heart of the nave, you can admire a structure in the shape of an upturned boat, but also model boats, sailors' crosses and even everyday objects.
Via Fluvia or Via Rhôna?
A section of the Via Fluvia was made from Serrières. The entire route to reach Vernosc-lès-Annonay has not been completed but 2km of cycle paths have already been developed. You can then continue the walk along the banks of the Rhône towards Champagne.
La Via Rhona as for her, it can be picked up just opposite Serrières in Sablons. Then you have the choice: go down to Sète or go up to Geneva!
