Rochefort-sur-Brévon walks
Around the Brévon valley, starting from Rochefort
Far from busy roads, this is a small, hilly, shaded route full of running water, where it is not uncommon to see roe deer, does, birds of prey and herons. Discover hidden villages in northern Burgundy.
Salives, medieval town
Salives, a must-see medieval village in Côte d'Or: its ramparts, its keep, the heraldic route recounting the medieval life of the village, and its wash house with the main source of the Tille river under the church. This route also takes in Barjon Castle and Saint-Frodulphe Chapel. A little further on, there is a mill with a water wheel that is still in working order. Also worth seeing in Le Meix are the wash house beneath the town hall and the château.
Route from the Douix Cave to Darcey
This route has been redeveloped and made safer. It allows you to bypass the Douix river and walk through a pleasant boxwood forest before reaching the village of Darcey and then the cave. It is not listed on IGN maps, which is why I used the Visorando app to track my route and highlight it.
Avot circular route to Courlon
Hike starting from towns north-west of Is-sur-Tille. You will hike through forests and plains, passing through two towns with a rich heritage: Courlon Castle, an old mill, a foundry and beautiful buildings.
The Amorey tufa formations from Auberive
This route allows you to explore the village of Auberive and its abbey (open to visitors; check opening times and days). Most of the route is through forest and offers views of the tufa formations (information panel on site).
Auberive, its former abbey, forest and animal park on a circular route.
Two-part hike: a beautiful forest loop ending at the animal park enclosures (fallow deer and wild boar), followed by a visit to the charming village of Auberive, with a tour of the former Cistercian abbey and a review of its rich history from its foundation in 1135 to its current status as a museum and exhibition venue.
Sources of the Seine and the Ignon

The sources of the Seine and their surroundings

Around Saulx-le-Duc
A short, easy and very pleasant hike leading to the Butte Saint-Siméon in Saulx-le-Duc, the highest point offering a beautiful view of the Ignon valley. No technical difficulty, but the climb to the Butte Saint-Siméon is steady.
The Creux Bleu walk in Villecomte
Le Creux Bleu is the resurgence (kastic massif) of the Francheville stream, which disappears a few kilometres upstream and is located 20 metres from the Ignon river in the centre of the village.
The tower, the valleys and the forests at Saussy
A short and easy hike to discover the valleys around Saussy, including the very wild Combe Quinquendolle, a nature reserve. This hike only uses public paths and forests!
The village, the deer park and the Belle Balade in Châteauvillain
This circuit cleverly combines the three walks around Chateauvillain: the Castle Park (which includes the Deer Park), the Belle Balade and its original sculptures carved into the forest, and a visit to the town of Chateauvillain, notably the Fortifications Trail. A rich and varied walk with no difficulties.
Forests and vineyards above Ricey Bas and Balnot
This circular walk takes us into the vineyard area of Les Riceys and Balnot-sur-Laignes. Leaving the vineyards behind, the return journey follows the course of the Laignes river and takes the route of the old "tacot" railway line which, from 1901, linked Les Riceys-Polisot to Cunfin.

This trail leads around the Lac de Pont artificial reservoir. This dam was built in 1882 and brought up to standard at the end of 2018. Car park, camping, restaurant, beach and leisure facilities are all available. A footbridge and staircase provide access to the dam and the right bank path. Other modifications underway following the 2018 drought. This October 11, 2018: diving board and beach have been demolished and will be rebuilt.
