Levernois walks

A short walk to explore this little village south of Beaune, set apart from the vineyards and crossed by the River Bouzaize. The route takes you through woodland and then across fields before passing through the village and following the little river.

This is stage 4 of the Route des Grands Crus series (RDGC). It covers the path from Beaune outskirts at Bouzaise Park through to Savigny-lès-Beaune and then Pernand-Vergelesses and Aloxe-Corton. It is dog-friendly and runs through charming villages, famous vineyards and wonderful countryside with great views. You will walk in both open country and the woods using good tracks or very quiet roads. There is some climbing but in general the walk is reasonably flat. Directions are well signposted. Although Aloxe-Corton is slightly off the official RDGC we finish there for a number of reasons outlined below including return route options

At first glance, this is a peaceful hike through the vineyards, but it gains altitude with the charming, stony paths of the Montagne d'Auxey.

This 2nd walk on the 8-walk Route des Grands Crus (RDGC) starts in the centre of the famous wine village of Meursault and joins the RDGC proper on the west edge of the village or a fraction further on near Auxey-Duresses. It continues through the charming village of Auxey-Duresses itself and runs through wonderful countryside and vineyards and although there is one steep climb, this provides great views of the valley villages below, before eventually reaching the wine village of Pommard. The walk is dog friendly. This is stage 2 of the Route des Grands Crus.

A hike to discover villages known for their fine wines, nestled among vineyards and woodlands.

On this third stage, we take some liberties with theGRP® route, taking a few shortcuts along the way and in the final section between Pommard and Meursault. Vineyards, grand crus, heritage sites and beautiful panoramic views await.

Alexandre Dumas wrote: " No view, no site, however varied, picturesque or grandiose, could make me forget my little valley in Burgundy ". To the west of Beaune, valleys and hills follow one another to welcome the vineyards of the Hautes Côtes de Beaune. On limestone soil, I invite you to discover these beautiful landscapes through the vineyards.

This circular route takes you up through the vineyard plots (Beaune ‘climats’) to the woods covering the higher ground of the vineyard. The route passes a viewpoint overlooking the Ruisseau de la Combe valley.

A very beautiful walk, especially in October when the vineyards are ablaze with colour, in the Hautes-Côtes between vineyards and woods in a hilly landscape, with pretty views, particularly above Pernand-Vergelesses.
