Departure from Brianny (Côte-d'Or)
Hiking between Lake Pont and the Burgundy Canal. Starting from the village of Brianny, well known for its Sainte-Apolline Chapel and its 15th-century frescoes depicting the Dance of Death, you will then follow part of the Bibracte Alésia trail through the villages of Montigny-sur-Armançon and Villeneuve-sous-Charigny, which are crossed by the Chemin des Oiseaux. The tranquillity of the Burgundy Canal will accompany you before you rejoin the Bibracte Alésia trail for the return to Brianny.
