Le Cousin (rivière) walks

A short walk from the Abbaye de la Pierre-qui-Vire, which first follows theGRP® Tour du Morvan, passes through the village of Trinquelin and then follows the Trinquelin valley. The abbey is located in the territory of Saint-Léger-Vauban, but can also be reached from Saint-Agnan.

Start from the church in Vault-de-Lugny, where the paintings were restored in 2017, and head to the summit of Montmarte. Return via Château de Domecy.

The title of the hike refers to the two main attractions: the Cousin valley and the old town of Avallon. The rest of the walk takes you along pleasant forest and country paths, offering different views of these two highlights of local tourism.

Accessible à deux tours de roue d'Avallon, la commune de Magny est un village paisible peu fréquenté. Voici une petite randonnée rafraîchissante dans la forêt, le long de la rivière avec quelques montées faciles et idéalement réparties sur le trajet.

Third and final stage of the Avallon-Vézelay-Lac du Crescent-Avallon loop. You will leave Lac du Crescent and head into the countryside and forests of the Morvan for the last time. This final stage of the loop takes us back to Avallon after a pleasant walk, where you will find the River Cousin.

This walk is almost entirely through forest on the outskirts of Avallon, with a few sections on the road. The first part is mainly in forest, while the second part is more open, bordering meadows and pastures.

Immerse yourself in the heart of the Morvan Regional Natural Park! Explore enchanting trails through mystical forests, green hills and crystal-clear rivers. Soak up the tranquillity and unspoilt beauty of these places. Marvel at breathtaking panoramas, observe a diverse range of flora and fauna, discover authentic villages such as Vézelay and finally relax by the Lac du Crescent. Whether you are a keen hiker or simply looking to get away from it all, this getaway to the Morvan is an invitation to wonder and serenity. Put on your walking shoes and set off on an unforgettable adventure in the heart of nature.
