White-marked route passing through 14 points of interest: evocative rocks, caves, excavations, springs, panoramic views, remains of dry stone buildings, etc.

This walk passes through the Bois de Ruère, where the “Table du Druide” viewing platform offers panoramic views over the Gironde valley and the Roche-Chèvre massif. Next come the ruins of Marigny Castle. Don’t miss, after the drawbridge, the remains of the gatehouse, the dovecote and the chapel. Once you’ve crossed the Ouche at Saint-Victor, the return route follows the towpath of the Canal de Bourgogne.

The Gironde is a stream that flows into the Ouche at Barbirey-sur-Ouche (Côte-d'Or). Its raging waters have carved out a narrow valley where rocky cliffs alternate with green slopes. The trail starts at the Jaugey wash house, classified as a "remarkable monument", and climbs up to the Roche de s'Laye balcony. It then continues to the Roche de l'Eau balcony and the charming hamlet of La Montagne. It then returns to the Jaugey slope to climb up to its balcony before reaching La Table du Druide.

This walk between two villages in the Ouche Valley, listed in the Côte d’Or PDIPR, is a variation on the Tour de Marigny. It bypasses the section running from the Table du Druide to Marigny Castle to head directly to Auvillard. This circular loop thus halves the distance, making for an easy walk of less than 7 km, comprising a slightly uphill outbound leg to Saint-Victor through woodland and meadows, and a flat return to Barbirey between the Ouche and the Burgundy Canal.

The route winds its way through hills and valleys, linking two buildings that were the hub of village life until the early20th century. The Jaugey wash house (in the hamlet of Barbirey-sur-Ouche) is a crossroads for numerous trails: the Tour de Barbaricum, the Tour des cinq balcons sur la Gironde, links to the Tour des Roches de Veluze, the Tour de Marigny, and the Traversée des 5 vallées. The wood-fired oven at Grenant-lès-Sombernoon is lit on public holidays. .

An easy, bucolic walk. Lake Cercey and its feed channel running alongside the golf course at the Château de Chailly-sur-Armançon, the Dionne wash house with its spillway into a crystal-clear, beautifully wooded pond. Two villages with traditional houses.
