Departure from Montereau-Fault-Yonne (Seine-et-Marne)
This is the first stage of the Via Burgundia®, which takes you across the whole of Burgundy from Montereau-Fault-Yonne to Mâcon, south of Saône-et-Loire. This major route, covering almost 500 km, is divided into three sections: the Yonne section, the Morvan section and, finally, the Southern Burgundy section.
This first section follows the course of the River Yonne from its confluence with the River Seine to Pont-sur-Yonne. It involves very little elevation gain but remains a fairly long stage if you cover it in a single day. The route winds its way along the River Yonne, past fields of cereals and ponds (or ‘noues’), particularly after Bichain.

Departure from Montereau-Fault-Yonne (Seine-et-Marne)
A three-stage walk from station to station. First, you cross the town of Montereau, the highlight being the Gothic collegiate church and the double bridge at the confluence of the Seine and the Yonne. Next, you follow the towpath, which is mostly shaded. Finally, you climb to a higher elevation before descending to Vernou-sur-Seine station.
(Please note) Just before (9), the underpass beneath the railway line is closed (see the comment posted on 21 July 2026). Until this obstruction is cleared, one option is to turn right to find a level crossing. Once you have crossed the tracks safely, follow the D39 to the left until you reach point (9).
