Rhône

Also known as Rhone, Rhône River, Rhone River

flod i sydvästra Schweiz och sydöstra Frankrike

AI overview

The Rhône is a major river that starts in the Alps and flows through France and Switzerland, passing through Lake Geneva and southeastern France before emptying into the Mediterranean Sea. It matters because it is a significant geographic and ecological feature of the region, and near its mouth it creates the Camargue delta, a distinctive area formed where the river divides into two branches.

Rhône är en 812 kilometer lång flod som rinner genom sydvästra Schweiz och sydöstra Frankrike. Den är en av Västeuropas längsta floder och har genom historien varit viktiga transportleder. Längs med floden finns flera större städer, inklusive Genève (där Genèvesjön rinner ut i Rhône) och Lyon (vid sammanflödet av Rhône och dess biflod Saône). I sitt övre lopp genom den tyskspråkiga delen av Schweiz heter floden Rotten. Floden rinner i dess nedre lopp genom den nord-sydliga Rhônedalen, mellan Centralmassivet och Alperna.
