Euro 2008 zone starting from Ouroux-en-Morvan
Let's go back in time to 2008, when the commune of Ouroux-en-Morvan was the geographical centre of the Eurozone. This distinction was calculated by the Institut Géographique National (IGN). The exact point was located in the Bondy forest. However, the centre of the Eurozone changes with the accession of new member countries. Each new accession to the euro zone shifts this central point. Thus, in 2009, with the entry of Slovakia, the centre moved to Liernais, in Côte-d'Or. This "European point" is represented by a piece of granite, and along the route you will find signs explaining the role of the Eurozone.

2,000 years of history around Ouroux-en-Morvan
Immerse yourself in the heart of the Morvan – a historical journey awaits you! This circular route reveals two fascinating eras. Start on the legendary Roman road, trodden by thousands of travellers 2,000 years ago, linking Ouroux-en-Morvan to Razou station. Imagine the carts, the legionaries, the hustle and bustle of that distant era. Then, time speeds up: here you are following in the footsteps of the Tacot, that picturesque train that criss-crossed the Morvan from 1901 to 1939. Picture scenes of daily life, the lively exchanges in the stations, the whistle of the Tacot echoing through the valleys. Beneath your feet, the ancient cobblestones, the remains of the sleepers and the ballast bear witness to those bygone eras. Feel the history, the palpable emotion of these places steeped in memory. This unforgettable immersion transports you into the Morvan’s past, a journey out of time, an adventure with every step.

The second part of the route takes you along the Chemin du Tacot, a single track road that ran from Corbigny to Seaulieu. You will pass the old Cœuzon station and the bridge-tunnel over the Chalaux river. You will also have the opportunity to see an almost identical full-size replica of the old Tacot locomotive. You will continue under arches covered in vegetation and finish by walking alongside the Étang d'Ouroux lake. In front of the village hall, you can also admire the blue carriage, which is unique in that it has the same metre gauge as the Tacot.
Le Châtelet - Bibracte
Third stage of the hike Towards the sources of the timber-floating trade, this fairly challenging section takes you upstream along the rivers, to where the timber was stored at the ‘ports’ of the timber-floating trade, so far from the sea... While waiting for the great flood (caused by the release of water from the ponds), the timber was then set adrift and continued its journey, not without difficulties, to Clamecy where it was tied together into rafts. It then continued its journey unhurriedly towards Paris where it was sold.
