Parassy walks

On the border between Sancerre and Champagne Berrichonne, this route starts in Parassy and allows you to discover part of the vineyards of the famous Ménetou AOC. This route, which follows part ofthe GR®31, also offers a short climb to the Bois de Michavant, where you can admire Champagne Berrichonne dominated by Bourges Cathedral.

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.

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.

Located north-east of Bourges and on the edge of the Menetou-Salon vineyards, this walk takes you through the countryside around Soulangis.

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.

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