Drambon walks
The Mirebeau State Forest as seen from Drambon
A circular walk starting from Drambon which, via Saint-Sauveur, takes us into the Mirebeau State Forest through varied and very pleasant scenery in fine weather.
Between Montmançon and Saint-Sauveur
A walk presenting no difficulty whatsoever, linking Montmançon to Saint-Sauveur whilst passing through the Mirebeau-sur-Bèze State Forest on the return journey.
Between Sommières and the ponds of the Saint-Léger Forest
A pleasant forest walk through open clearings and rugged woodland paths, leading to two ponds where you can observe wildlife.
A short circular loop around Trochères
Taking a walk around Trochères isn’t easy; canals block our path in many places, particularly in the Bois de Mordesson, whilst the Albane and Motte streams dictate our route. Not to mention the private woods, where access is prohibited.
So I suggest this family walk, which is still enjoyable and allows us to explore the outskirts of this village.
Places to see:
A 19th-century open-air washhouse at the western exit; the village also boasts the small 13th-century Church of the Nativity, rebuilt in the 18th century and restored with ochre-coloured render.
The two mills, Haut and Bas.
Circular route from Pontailler to Saint-Sauveur via Maxilly-sur-Saône
Starting from Pontailler-sur-Saône, the route takes us through the communal forests of Pontailler and Maxilly-sur-Saône to Saint-Sauveur, before heading back down via the Marne–Saône Canal and then along the River Saône to return to Pontailler.
A leisurely stroll starting from Pontailler-sur-Saône

Circular walk in the Forest of Saint-Léger starting from Cirey-lès-Pontailler
A family walk through the forest and a protected area, far from the hustle and bustle of the town and with little traffic.
A circular walk starting from Talmay
As well as a visit to the village and its famous castle, this walk will take you into the Bois de Charmois, where, like me, you might be lucky enough to spot some deer – outside of hunting season, of course.
Heuilley-sur-Saône, the Saône banks and its junction with the Marne river
This route will take you along the banks of the Saône and to the mouth of the Marne-Saône canal.Take time to look at the lock-keeper's houses and the locks. Maybe you'll see swans, herons and cranes. Beautiful views of cattle farms and meadows.Just before you return to the starting point, you'll pass over the Pont de Garde, close to the two dams on the Saône and the last lock on the route.
Walk on the hills above Lamarche-sur-Saône
After completing the circuit of the Étang du Milieu, this walk takes you up to the heights of Lamarche-sur-Saône, skirting the Pays Neuf. We’ll take the Voie Verte before walking through the woods known as the Grandes Charrières, then through the Leat aux Renards. We’ll return to the starting point by crossing the Pays Neuf.
From Mirebeau-sur-Bèze to Noiron-sur-Bèze via the national forest
This walk through the national forest will take you past the castle, Noiron and Blagny.
It follows a path once used by horses and pack animals to carry timber, charcoal and large game out of the forests, or to bring in woodcutters, charcoal burners and their equipment.
We will visit the villages of Mirebeau-sur-Bèze and Noiron-sur-Bèze, through which the River Béze flows.
The Bois du Vieux Dijon in Arçon
An easy, family-friendly walk across the plain and through the woodland, partly shaded, partly sunny. On your way through Arçon, see the 12th-century Sainte-Anne Chapel, remodelled in the 17th century, located on Grande Rue. On leaving the woods, at a place called La Charme aux Loups, you’ll find the Sainte-Gertrude Chapel, which is not maintained.
Walk in the Saint-Léger State Forest
The origins of Lamarche are unknown. Nevertheless, the discovery in 1887 of polished stone axes and flint knives by Viscount Raoul Legouz de Saint-Seine suggests that the area was inhabited as early as the Neolithic period, although it seems that these tools, found at the confluence of the Bèze and the Saône, were carried here by the floods of these rivers.
This peaceful stroll through the national forest is a truly relaxing experience.
In the footsteps of Brunehaut around Renève
This route will take you to Oisilly. You will see a beautiful viaduct, which you can detour to see
, the Mirebeau Forest, Cheuge and its drawbridge, famous for the filming of the film "La Veuve Couderc", the Renève Forest and the village, its castle, its two very pretty wash houses, and its rather unusual war memorial. You can also visit the Halte Brunehaut to discover the history of Queen Brunehaut and the exhibition of Gallo-Roman remains found around Renève.
Vaux-sur-Crosne circular
A quiet family route in the heart of the countryside, between woodland and open countryside. 80% shaded Vaux-sur-Crosne has been part of the Norge and Tille Community of Communes since January 2017 and boasts a highly varied water system, partly due to the presence of the rivers Tille and Crosne, and partly due to the presence of a pond, the Lochère, and numerous former gravel pits now reserved for fishing.
