Corcelles-lès-Cîteaux walks

A short circular loop around the River Sans Fond, which winds through fields and the Izeure State Forest. The Sansfondis 16.3 km long, rising at Perrigny-les-Dijon at an altitude of 230 m and flowing into the Vouge at the Abbey of Cîteaux within the municipality of Saint-Nicolas-lès-Cîteaux at an altitude of 193 m.

As a resident of Izeure, I had to suggest a hike starting from my town, and now I have. This beautiful walk can be done with the family, is not difficult and has many picnic spots along the Cent Fonts (and not without bottom). Moderator's warning on 07/04/2021: Caution! Private property issue in (12). See reviews.

This gentle trail takes in one of the major structures built in the 13th century by the monks of Cîteaux to ensure their water supply: the Canal de la Cent Fonts.

A circular route through the Domaniale d'Izeure forest and along the Burgundy Canal with three locks, which may be in operation when you visit. In Longecourt, you can see the castle, the wash house and the church.

A short family walk between woods and the Burgundy Canal.

Winter hike with limited risk of mud and hunting, but to be avoided in case of flooding due to the Sans Fond river. This hike will allow you to see the castle of Saulon-la-Rue, the church of Saulon-la-Chapelle with its two turrets, and to walk along part of the river "La Sans Fond" with the mill of Saulon-la-Chapelle. Due to private property issues, a change to the route is currently being considered.

Discover the curiosities of the Cîteaux Forest, the large woods, forest roads, ponds and numerous streams that drain it. This hike is almost flat but gives a good idea of the large forest, with its magnificent high forests, drainage ditches and wide open views from some of the forest roads.

A lovely walk in a natural setting where you can see and hear wildlife that is always present. The Citeaux State Forest, covering an area of 3,564 hectares, was created during the Revolution through the merger of a royal estate and Cistercian lands. It is a former marshland situated on the lower terraces of the Saône Valley. Perfect for a Sunday stroll with the family. Please note: some paths have disappeared; check the notices; changes are currently being considered

This walk takes place partly along the Ouche river (Oscara in Latin). It has its source in Lusigny-sur-Ouche. This commune is the guardian of the sources of the Ouche. The village is particularly charming with its stone houses.

This hike follows parts of the route of the old Tacot de Gevrey to Beaune, which passed through Curley. It also takes you through mysterious valleys: the Combe Grisard and the Combe de Creuse. There are also beautiful views of the cliffs of the Combe Lavau.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

Some pleasant stopping points, including the Cents Marches de Fixin, the Chamerey Rent with views of Chamboeuf, and the Col de la Toppe.

Depart from Fixin towards Chamerey then Ecotois, return via Chamerey then Fixey. A mainly forest route.

Fancy exploring the forest, the Bois des Francs and its paths, seeing Marsannay-la-Côte Castle and its church, and strolling along the vineyards? Then let’s go. The vineyards of Marsannay-la-Côte are part of the Climats of the Burgundy vineyards, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Thanks to the combined effect of the geology, the exposure and human labour, these vineyards produce a wine distinct from those of the neighbouring Climats.

Starting from the Couchey orientation table, a route above the Vaulon, Pévenelle and Semetrot valleys. Particularly recommended in summer when it is hot. This route is in the middle of the forest with views over the entire Dijon plain and Mont Blanc, weather permitting.
