Magny-Montarlot walks
Circular between Magny-Montarlot and Poncey-lès-Athée
Hike through the Bois des Ratières and Bois des Cognés woods where, depending on the season, you will discover these woods and their colours. Pass through Poncey-lés-Athée (unusual chapel) and walk along the banks of the Saône (dam). Return through the meadows.
Saône ponds route
From the vast Longchamp forest to the banks of the Saône, this walk offers an unexpected variety of landscapes on the edge of the Val de Saône: rich flora and fauna, charming villages with their churches, wash houses and the château in Athé. There is also the dam on the Saône and the Plate in Poncey-lès-Athée, the ponds in Magny-Montarlot and the magnificent villages with a rich history. Let's go!
Water catchments and the Poncey dam at the start of the route in Athée
A pleasant, easy walk exploring the two villages of Athée and Poncey-lès-Athée, which also takes in the drinking water treatment plant and its catchments for the Dijon metropolitan area, the Poncey dam, the church and the Athée retirement home.
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.
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.
The Cradle of the King of Rome
Starting from Premières, a circular route that passes through the Arboretum and the Soirans Communal Forest whilst skirting the high-speed rail line, then the Mondragon Woods, before heading into the Longchamp State Forest and its ponds, finally offering a view of the birthplace of the King of Rome.
The Longchamp State Forest via Montarlot
A walk through the impressive Longchamp State Forest and its surrounding areas, starting from Longchamp via Montarlot, passing close to three foresters’ cottages.
The Soirans wash house
This circular loop takes you through two villages in the Côte d'Or: Soirans, with its semi-circular wash house and its12th-century church, and Tréclun, with its highly original town hall, including its decorative features, as well as an unusual bus shelter.
Route d'Auxonne
Auxonne is a small town with the distinctive feature of being surrounded by Vauban’s fortifications. Situated halfway between Dijon and Dôle, this little town is well worth a visit, whether for the fortifications – which are largely well-preserved – or for the Church of Notre-Dame, the castle or the riverside area along the Saône. This walk takes in all the cultural and tourist sites worth seeing within the town’s fortified walls. The first part of the route allows you to explore Vauban’s ramparts, whilst the second part takes you to discover the monuments in the historic centre.

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.
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.
The banks of the Saône at the start of Labergement-lès-Auxonne
This circular route allows you to discover the village of Labergement-Lès-Auxonne, its 12th-century Saint-Étienne Church with its 17th-century altarpiece and altar, the banks of the Saône with the Voie Bleue and market gardens.
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.
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.
