The Ouche has been redeveloped, making it a great place for a walk in spring or autumn. You can collect walnuts in season. A very pleasant bucolic setting where you can watch the birds. Picnics are possible by the pond.Note:La Gaule de Neuilly is organising its Enduro Carpes from 23 to 25 May (2025) at theNeuilly-Crimoloispond.

Étang Royal, a little corner of paradise. Walkers, joggers and other nature lovers appreciate this site for its calm, beauty and balance. An easy walk to enjoy the green charm of the ponds and banks of the Ouche.

This walk takes place partly along the Ouche river (Oscara in Latin). It has its source in Lusigny-sur-Ouche. This commune is the guardian of the sources of the Ouche. The village is particularly charming with its stone houses.

Winter hike with limited risk of mud and hunting, but to be avoided in case of flooding due to the Sans Fond river. This hike will allow you to see the castle of Saulon-la-Rue, the church of Saulon-la-Chapelle with its two turrets, and to walk along part of the river "La Sans Fond" with the mill of Saulon-la-Chapelle. Due to private property issues, a change to the route is currently being considered.

I suggest a short walk that will take you through some of Dijon's parks, passing by a beautiful viewpoint overlooking Lac Kir.

This day-long hike allows you to discover the vineyards that will eventually make up the Dijon appellation. You will regularly enjoy beautiful views of the plain or Dijon, but also more mysterious passages in the undergrowth and at the bottom of the valley. It is a varied route rich in heritage, on terrain that can be very different at times.

Dijon is a remarkable city because it has been preserved by its history. Since its Gallo-Roman origins (3rd century), three major periods have shaped this city: the Middle Ages, with its churches, then the Valois, the great dukes of Burgundy; the Renaissance, reflected in the splendour of the parliamentarians' mansions; and Art Nouveau, with its inventive decorations. The aim of this discovery trail is to take you through these different periods.

Fancy exploring the forest, the Bois des Francs and its paths, seeing Marsannay-la-Côte Castle and its church, and strolling along the vineyards? Then let’s go. The vineyards of Marsannay-la-Côte are part of the Climats of the Burgundy vineyards, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Thanks to the combined effect of the geology, the exposure and human labour, these vineyards produce a wine distinct from those of the neighbouring Climats.

A short, easy walk to discover a remarkable tree, "Les Six Filles", and remember the Maquis des Lochères.

The Suzon and the Ouche, two rivers of great importance to Dijon. This route runs from one to the other through a patchwork of gardens, avenues and small paths. Historical and artistic points of interest and viewpoints. Access by tram; access by car is also possible.

This hike will take you through the town's green spaces, around the lake and along the Tille river.

An easy walk along the banks of the River Norges, crossing the plain south of Genlis and passing by the Longeault-Pluvault pond. The route has little shade and is mostly on stony paths.

A circular route through the Domaniale d'Izeure forest and along the Burgundy Canal with three locks, which may be in operation when you visit. In Longecourt, you can see the castle, the wash house and the church.

From the Basilica of Saint Bernard to the Hauteville-lès-Dijon viewpoint.

A short family walk between woods and the Burgundy Canal.

Lac Chanoine Kir loop through the heights of Talant, Plombières-lès-Dijon and Fontaine d'Ouche.A route between town and nature, with beautiful views over the lake.

A beautiful walk, two-thirds of it shaded, in the countryside at the gateway to Dijon, between Talant and Plombières, between valleys and vineyards, with beautiful views over Talant, the Ouche valley and Mont Afrique in the distance. The incline is reasonable and broken down into three short climbs, making this a very easy and relatively fast walk.

Randonnée au départ de Tart le haut en passant par plaines et bois afin de rejoindre les communes avoisinantes.

This circular route allows you to explore the village of Hauteville-lès-Dijon and see the recently restored Ronge fountain and the Chêneaux spring, which is still undergoing restoration. Both springs are sensitive natural areas with protected species. Please respect these species and, in particular, keep your pets away from these areas.

In our region, there are many stone structures called cadoles, cabotes or cabiotes, which were once used as shelters by farmers. Winegrowers' huts are piles of stones gathered from fields, and a similar structure, murgers, refers to piles of stones left over from clearing fields. The proposed route allows you to discover some of these structures, which have been restored by a local association. You can find out more about their work and explanations on their website, with the participation of the "Sentiers" integration association. This is our small rural heritage. It is important to know about it (and to preserve it), as well as the customs of a bygone era, which have nevertheless shaped our landscapes. In the region, the terms "cadoles" and "cabotes" refer to the same type of construction, often found near vineyards. However, the term "cabiote" is used very locally in the Hauteville-les-Dijon area.
