Moroges walks
Lys Walk
This undulating route around Mont Brogny is not difficult and offers unobstructed views throughout.
The hamlet of Le Lys, nestled beneath a small rocky outcrop, seems to be there just to surprise hikers at the edge of the woods.
Sources du Reuil (springs)
A peaceful crossing of the Plateau de Saint-Désert in the vicinity of Mont Avril and Mont Brogny. In the distance, the perched hamlet of Cruchaud stands guard to the South, before the route offers an escape to the Plaine de Saône.
The washhouses of Jambles and Mont Avril
Continuing to discover the Saône-et-Loire region through this wine-growing village and its many small wash-houses. The trail ends at Mont Avril, with its panoramic view over the whole valley. I advise you to do this trail in autumn to get the most out of it.
The Chemin des Frères in Montagny-lès-Buxy
A hilly hike south of the Côte Chalonnaise, where calcareous grasslands have not entirely given way to vineyards. Although the forest is never far away, the walk offers unobstructed views for most of the route.
Orbize Route
This is a hilly hike offering some clear views from one side of the Orbize to the other in the heart of the Châtel-Moron forest. The route sometimes climbs a little to vary the landscape, but it is not particularly difficult and remains sufficiently shaded to be enjoyable in the summer months.
La Ferme des Couleurs in Châtel-Moron
Discover a small area of Burgundy nestled between the Vallée des Vaux and the Vallée de la Dheune.
A succession of narrow paths connect these remote and charming hamlets, which seem to be "supplied by crows".
Givry - Saint-Denis-de-Vaux circular through the woods
A beautiful circular through the woods, well shaded in summer. Pass near Saint-Denis de Vaux, at the top of the cliffs. Beautiful views over the Chalon-sur-Saône plain, then over the Vaux valley. Return near the stubble fields in the woods. Possible extension to Russilly.
La Chaume Sacrée in Givry
This route will take you to the top of the Givry hill, the forest planted with Austrian pines, cedars and deciduous trees, and the limestone grassland classified as a Natura 2000 site. Along the way, you will discover the charming hamlet of Russilly, nestled in a valley overlooking the vineyards. This walk offers multiple views of the Côte Chalonnaise and the Saône plain.
Discovering Givry and the surrounding area
A stroll along old stones, vineyards and footpaths. The journey is much like a pilgrimage in this part of the Saône-et-Loire region, with many religious ornaments.
La Vallée des Vaux - The trail of the Crosses
For this hike, I had fun making this trail around the crosses and other statues in the Vallée des Vaux. Useful for discovering the beauty of the landscape.
The Cross of Theu
This is one of the most beautiful hikes in the Vallée des Vaux, just a stone's throw from Chalon. The Falaises de Château Beau and the Croix de Theu are the highlights of the walk, offering sweeping views from their summits and forming part of the scenery throughout the route.
Around Mercurey
Discover the surroundings of Mercurey, between vineyards and woods with superb autumn landscapes.
20/07/2023 Moderator's message: The route is currently being modified because the passage to (8) in the Bois de l'Hallier is private.
Château de Pontus or Pontus Castle
A hill walk with no major challenges, in an unspoilt setting with villages overlooked by Mont Bouzu. Changing views all along the way, including a wide shot of Mont Saint-Vincent and a visit to the Château de Pontus-de-Thyard.
Mercurey's little loop
Discover Mercurey's surroundings: the vineyards, of course, but also the different viewpoints over the village and the beautiful 12th-century churches.
Saules - Rimont - Saules
A pleasant hike of around 20 kilometres with no particular difficulties, this hike can be done in the opposite direction to that indicated.
The Crainseny Valley
A peaceful and relatively shaded route between vineyards and forest to discover, in the heart of nature, the surprising Crainseny Viaduct that spans the entire valley.
The Gorges de la Mouille, near Culles-les-Roches, offer a charming passage without being too dizzying.
From Maizeray to Saint-Martin-du-Tartre
A short walk through meadows and vineyards, taking in the village of Saint-Martin-du-Tartre and its beautiful views.
The Santagny cross from Genouilly
A walk in the countryside of Genouilly, a small rural village in the Guye valley, between the limestone hillsides where vines grow and the granite forest chaos.
Rivers, hedges and copses punctuate this hike, which follows paths and small roads.
