Discover a multi-faceted trail. A flat start along a stream, followed by the cliffs and the Trou du Duc. Pass through the forest and discover 2 historic sites: the Gallo-Roman site and the Monument du Maquis. Return through the vineyards.

A signposted trail along the entire route takes in the rich landscapes of the Hautes Côtes de Nuits, as well as the village of Villers-la-Faye.

A family route, with 75% shaded forest paths and 25% white vineyard paths. As you set off, you'll have a view of the village of Chaux and its plateau, then pass the Monument du Canon dating from 1872. Finally, along the Chemin des Vignes, you'll see the 'cabottes', typical cottage-like housing of vineyard workers.

Stroll around the ruins of the region's most powerful fortified castle. Visit the ruins of the Abbey of Saint-Vivant and explore the Abîme de Bévy.

This is stage 5 of the Route des Grands Crus and it runs from Pernand-Vergelesses round the woods and vineyards along to Magny-lès-Villers and Villers-la-Faye villages and round the quarry and down into Prémeaux-Prissey. .It is dog friendly and through both vineyards and countryside.

This is stage 7 in the series of Route des Grands Crus walks runs from Nuits-St-Georges through the vineyards and woods and combes to Gevrey-Chambertin. Both of these small towns are host to some of the most famous red wines in the world as are some of the charming villages and landmarks in between like Vosne-Romanée, Chambolle-Musigny and Chateau de Vougeot. It is a dog friendly walk (there is a good veterinary surgery in Nuits). It is a fairly long and reasonably challenging walk as there are some climbs in the middle leading off the vineyards into the woods. Return by bus and train is possible to the start.

Beautiful hike starting from the village of Chambolle. This trail allows you to (re)discover the Château d'Entre Deux Monts, the Château du Clos Vougeot, and the natural heritage of the Chambolle Musigny and Orveau valleys.

You can discover the superb Combe Durey from the inside, as well as countless varieties of mushrooms.

Very nice walk with two aspects, the ascent through deciduous woods and the descent through a rocky area with a view of the Gevrey Chambertin vineyards.Quite a steep climb, with some tricky steps on the way down.Make sure you wear appropiate clothes.

This is stage 4 of the Route des Grands Crus series (RDGC). It covers the path from Beaune outskirts at Bouzaise Park through to Savigny-lès-Beaune and then Pernand-Vergelesses and Aloxe-Corton. It is dog-friendly and runs through charming villages, famous vineyards and wonderful countryside with great views. You will walk in both open country and the woods using good tracks or very quiet roads. There is some climbing but in general the walk is reasonably flat. Directions are well signposted. Although Aloxe-Corton is slightly off the official RDGC we finish there for a number of reasons outlined below including return route options

This is stage 8, the final walk in the Route des Grands Crus (RDGC) series, starting in the world famous Grand Cru Burgundy wine town of Gevrey-Chambertin, ending on the outskirts of Dijon. It begins at Gevrey church, taking you past the Chateau up through woods to the delightful Parc Noisot and past Clos Napoleon vineyard and restaurant to the charming villages of Fixey, Couchey and Marsannay before passing the last major vineyard of the Cote d'Or to the outskirts of Dijon at Genove. It is dog friendly and a reasonably easy walk after a climb at the start. The Yellow Red (YR) lines to indicate the RDGC make for good navigation.

This beautiful walk will not only take you through beautiful countryside, but will also take you on a journey through time, from the Order of Malta to the 2nd World War.The highlight is the Templar church in Echarnant, built in the 12th century and located on the road to Compostela, which is why the Templars settled here.

Nice walk, starting from Barbirey-sur-Ouche, on both sides of the Gyronde valley, to the old Oizerolles farm and back via the Marigny hills.

This trail will take you to the 100 steps of Brochon and its valley and springs, and then the 100 steps of Fixin and its valley.

This stage 3 in the overall Route des Grands Crus Burgundy series. This dog friendly walk runs from Pommard centre up into the hills through vineyards and woods and then finishes down in the outskirts of Beaune in the delightful Park de la Bouzaise. There is an option for an easy circular return if needed.

This a short pleasant walk, mostly in the shady forest with just a modest amount of climbing. There is a fascinating historic connection in that one of Napoleon’s grenadier guards, Noisot, created in his own name the Parc Noisot and the associated walks, waymarked with symbols of Napoleons’ Russian, Egyptian and Italian military campaigns. This guide is for the longer but most fulfilling route – the Russian route. About halfway along is a staircase of 100 steps marking the number of days Napoleon took to regain power after release from first captivity. The walk is also of geological interest, being part of the Combe de Fixin. The meaning of Combe is a narrow gorge, ravine or small valley often containing a mixture of limestone, cliff faces, and forestry, leading to a plateau, but with no significant water course, with similarity to the Combes in England such as Ilfracombe. The excellent Tourist Office in the nearby and famous Gevry Chambertin can tell you more.

There are a number of interesting places to visit, including the 100 Fixin steps ('Cent Marches des Fixin') and the top of the Combe Lavaux ridges.

Pass through the Cent Marches de Fixin (100 steps), then head for the top of the Combe de Fixey on the south side, then on the north side to descend through the vineyards.
