CAB (Centre d'Art Bastille) Review

Amazing!!! A place to relax and admire the beautiful Grenoble.

Magnificent we left on foot from the center of Grenoble to climb and join the fort. From the top a magnificent view at practically 360 degrees, there are a few people, but you cannot be disappointed with the panorama, which embellishes the look on this charming city.

A beautiful place to visit. The panoramas are incredible. The snowy mountains above the city is a real spectacle. I have visited it in the month of Easter and there are many people, but you can see it perfectly. I liked that you can get on the cable car with your pet paying 2 euros just for him. Today the restaurant was closed.

Unpleasant home does not make you want to come: when you ask the rates to the hostess, answer is written! I left without testing.

The bubble rise is a bit expensive (8.5 round trip) but the setting at the top is very beautiful!

Truly spectacular views, nice bar, beautiful walk to get there.

Spectacular views of the entire city, it is highly recommended to visit it if you are in Grenoble, both on foot (about 3 KM) and by cable car. There is also an adventure park that runs inside and outside the Bastille, as well as the museum of mountain troops (highly recommended) and the museum of contemporary art. There is also a restaurant with great views.

Superb view over all of Grenoble with some activities on site.

Very nice place for a family walk. Athletes are not left out. The view of Grenoble and the mountains is beautiful.

We had lunch in a restaurant as at Fort La Bastille - Grenoble, and took the bubbles (cable car) when we pulled up, the fog has enveloped us, it was very beautiful.

View to all the metropole but few entertainment activities

We went up to Bastille with friends from the north. We could not take the eggs. Repair of the material. So we got in a car. Arrival on the site we were amazed of the sight on Grenoble, belledonne, and the vercors and the massif of the oisans. Being a native of Grenoble and growing up in this city, every time I come to Grenoble I can only be amazed at my mountains and my city. Our friends were captivated by our visit. You tourists take the time to apreciate my city.

Very different ride, very nice access via cable car. If you like scenery, it is the right place to visit.

I love this place where we start downtown and very quickly we gain altitude and very quickly we are disoriented with a magnificent view of the mountains.

Everything was closed, nothing to drink except the toilet sinks at 18h ...

Amazing view of Grenoble from the fort and a really nice walk to get there... You can also continue and climb up the Jala mount and see the memorial and another impressive view form 500 meters above the city

It has a great view of the city and the mountains, the fortress is also nice to look at, but mainly the view is special, there is also a small climbing park in the fortress

Magnificent view to discover urgently if you have never done or for new Grenoble residents

precious unique you can not marxarte de grenoble without seeing it

Awesome! You must do a hike upto the Telepherique and you will a lot more than just the overview of the city. Also, take a step further and go the caves up which is probably less than a mile but definitely worth going there.

Very good experience, even at night this fort offers a breathtaking view of Grenoble. Very good health course accessible for all levels with the possibility of cutting by stairs (or eggs)

I came here for the via ferrata on the fort, very nice and beautiful view, a small level is still required for the latter

a wonderful place ... these views and the gondola ride itself :) you can be delighted ...

Great place to see the overall city from here...bubbles good also....must visit place in Grenoble

Family, the climb is suitable for strollers (but the mother must be sporty) or take the cable car.
Upstairs the view is magnificent.
One of the best spots to see Grenoble from above

Beautiful view from the top. Nice to walk. Accessible by funicular.

No bcp animation .... nothing open! But the view is beautiful !!!

Always very pleasant to spend time in Bastille with family or friends very pleasant places

A Grenoble must. Stunning view of the city and the alps. You can walk up which is a challenging hike or take the cable car which is more convenient.

It is especially the panorama on Grenoble and the surrounding mountains which is interesting.

Beautiful view of the city.
Sincerely expensive the price of the cableway climb!

Nice view of the whole city from top. Nice afternoon hike.

Great point of view on Grenoble! Too bad we can not find an isolated corner to just contemplate the view and land.

A point of view not to be missed on Grenoble and the surrounding mountains. Guaranteed chills for those who have vertigo.

Very beautiful view of Grenoble in high as well as on all the massifs that surround the metropolis
Big worry in the extremely roomy toilets

Great view onto Grenoble. The Cable Car brings you up the hill

Beautiful view of Grenoble, even more spectacular by taking the cable car. Many paths to make beautiful walks go there, with those who dare a staircase dug into the rock, with 80m of vertical drop in the dark!

Loved the mundane hiking experience. One hour of no-sweat hiking activity that is suitable for the family. View is spectacular.

Beautiful both on foot and by cable car. Very tiring uphill walk.

Beautiful view of Grenoble, for the more courage, it can be reached on foot by the stairs, it's nice, but must be careful in summer.

The Bastille
Grenoble

Took the cable car to the top and had a lovely dessert.

From Guy Pape park you can walk, many stairs but exceptional view of Grenoble

The best plan in my opinion: take the cable car and walk back down. Beautiful walk with a great panorama of the Grenoble conurbation

Despite bad weather, we dared a visit to Grenoble. And we were rewarded.
The gondolas were the first experience ... Round and equipped with folding seats ...
They offer a nice first view of the city.
The Philippeville car park is a 2-minute walk from the valley station.
There are several ways to spend the day on the Bastille:

- Hikes
- museum
- climbing park
- good food

An essential walk to do. On foot allow 3 hours (ascent, descent and discovery of the place)

Impressive! The ascent and descent by car is not easy, you have to have a vehicle in perfect condition, but with a big dog, the cable car is too panoramic.

Very well maintained. beautiful monument Beautiful view

Great view, Museum of the Army very well done and well documented I recommend this visit during which you can buy souvenirs whose recipes are dedicated to the wounded

Splendid view! A breathtaking panorama of Grenoble.
To do without hesitation.

Part of the work, we did not visit everything. Very beautiful panorama. Interesting, to visit more extensively. Plan on outfit and hiking equipment. Good restaurants on site.

Quite cool you can walk up there with a pram, but only the very top is not reachable with our big pram. There is a flight of stairs, what a shame! Beautiful combination of snow and nature!

I love it ... I do it as soon as I can .... very beautiful panorama ... to redo and validate ...

Grenoble s city centre is concentrated on the south edge of the swift meandering River Isere. Exactly facing the old centre but on the north side of the river looms the hillside fortifications of La Bastille, a grand 16th-century military stronghold complete with a donjon, an ammunition depot and several scattered underground hide-outs.
Crossing pedestrianized Pont St-Laurent from the old centre deposits you on Place de la Cimaise, a small secluded square that offers a fair share of atmospheric eateries. An unmarked narrow passageway nestled at the foot of the hill right behind Place de la Cimaise is the start of a stiff one-hour uphill climb that leads to Fort de la Bastille. The winding walkway is unsuitable for those who lack adrenaline because the paths are rough, stony and in places, swampy and watery. The only relief are the benches that fill in several recesses along the way. As one ventures further uphill, the views over the city of Grenoble and the surrounding mountains become more spectacular.
To avoid walking up to the fort, one can hop aboard the Telepherique Grenoble Bastille from the lower station on Quai Stephane Jay. Riding the all-glass egg-shaped pods of the telepherique is an unforgettable spell of amusement that alas... lasts only 10 minutes.
The architecture of the fort is nothing special or unusual but for the sheer size of the building, the fort is worth a visit. Temporary exhibitions, often interactive are held inside.
Further up behind the fort, more passageways lead to the Centre d Art Bastille and the Musee Troupes de Montagne. The surrounding trails in the forest continue to the Park Regional de Chartreuse.

Nice panoramic spot on the city with via ferrata and ovovia

Interesting, very well done and a warm welcome from the military.

Very beautiful place, beautiful cave, several activities, only the access is very complicated, because small lane in two directions.

Very nice walk to get to the Bastille, overlooking a grand view of the city of Grenoble
