Running through France and Switzerland at approximately 505 mi (813 km) long, the Rhone is the only major European river that flows directly into the Mediterranean Sea. An important inland trade and transportation route since Greek times, the Rhone River flows south to the Mediterranean, winding through the orchards and vineyards of the fertile Rhone Valley. Of all the French rivers, the Rhone has the largest water flow due to its Alpine characteristics. See France at its scenic best on a charming Rhone river cruise.
