Morogues walks

The suggested ride around Morogues will allow you to discover the different landscapes of this area: passing through vineyards, with views of the Berry countryside or the Sancerre region. It is a hilly route without any major difficulties that can be covered by mountain bike.

In the foothills of the Sancerre region, overlooking the Berry countryside, come and discover some of the Morogues vineyards that produce the renowned AOC wines of Ménetou-Salon. This is also the starting point for the famous Morogues-Sancerre hike, which many people do at night and don't get to enjoy the scenery. On the way back, depending on the weather, you may be able to see Bourges Cathedral and the Berry countryside.

Hike through the vineyards, with beautiful views of the Loire.

This route takes you past the saffron well, the saffron farm (visits by appointment) and then along a shaded section of the Tripande before climbing through the fields overlooking Moulins-sur-Yèvre. You may encounter deer here.

During this hike, you will almost always have a view of the entire vineyard and Sancerre. Depending on the season, you will see the pruning of the vines or the grape harvest. You will pass by the highest "peaks" in the region.

This route allows you to discover the marsh, which has been shaped since 1640, when the city of Bourges sold part of its communal land to turn it into usable gardens.The marsh workers surrounded these marshes with outer ditches, dug inner ditches and established service roads.You will discover this work and these gardeners through a superb family walk.

This walk combines a tour of the old town and its main points of interest (including the cathedral, the Palais Jacques Cœur, and streets and alleys lined with beautiful half-timbered houses) with the classic route through the Bourges marshes at the foot of the medieval town (with its many waterways and small market gardens developed since the 17th century). The route through the old town is a minimum loop for those in a hurry, but there's nothing to stop you zigzagging around it to discover little gems around every corner.

A short walk along the Loire and through the valley, then along the hillside through the vineyards of Sancerre, following the old railway line connecting Cosne-sur-Loire to Bourges. Beautiful views of the river, the towns of Saint-Satur and Ménétréol, the town of Sancerre, the vineyards and the side canal. Best done in spring or autumn.

Starting from the water tower at Place Séraucourt, this is a pleasant circular of around 60 kilometres, with no particular difficulties.

Discover the village of Saint-Loup-des-Bois, its inhabitants, the Saints-Lupéens, and the forests that surround it.

In addition to these major collections in Europe, there is an astonishing and impressive collection of irons and a collection dedicated to woodworking trades (clog makers, coopers, wheelwrights, etc.).

This beautiful circular walk begins along the Canal de la Sauldre, with its locks, small bridges and weirs. It then enters the forest, along long paths lined with ponds, and ends with an almost complete tour of the Étang du Puits, via Cerdon beach, the pretty path that winds between the trees along a small disused railway line, the crossing of the Bois aux Moines and, finally, the path that runs alongside the Canal and the beach at Argent-sur-Sauldre.

Its long paths will take you to the Borne des Quatre Paroisses, the meeting point of the communes of Cerdon-du-Loiret, Brinon-sur-Sauldre, Villemurlin and Isdes. The walk through the forest on the border between Loiret and Cher is worth the detour alone.

Waymarked walk N° 38 In the land of the potters, there is first and foremost the clay that serves as the raw material for the craftsmen, then the water that gushes out of the clay-silica or clay-limestone soils, depending on the geology of the subsoil in this area. But there's also the beauty of nature, with its landscapes, paths framed and even marked by these hedges and their sometimes mysterious, sometimes mischievous tadpoles. They are the source of some of the legends that live in the area.
