Saint-Clément-sur-Guye walks

This 10km loop hike starts from Saint-Clément-sur-Guye, with the Carapone at its highest point (440m), and takes in the villages of Saint-Clément-sur-Guye (Romanesque church listed as a historic monument in 1927, a tower to the east of the church), Rains, commune of Joncy (pretty stone houses), Le Petit Ballay, its square tower, its 'Murgers' (piles of stones removed from the vines), before Corcelles (hamlet of Saint-Clément).

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.

A short walk through meadows and vineyards, taking in the village of Saint-Martin-du-Tartre and its beautiful views.

From the medieval town of Saint-Gengoux-le-National, a route via the Crainseny Viaduct and Culles-les-Roches.

This walk starts in the medieval town of Saint-Gengoux-le-National, continues to Culle-les-Roches, a village below a cliff with a cave, and returns via a lost viaduct in the forest.

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.

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.

A pleasant hike of around 20 kilometres with no particular difficulties, this hike can be done in the opposite direction to that indicated.

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.

The village of Saint-André-le-Désert is located between Clunisois and Charolais. I suggest this short walk in the heart of the Charolais cattle breeding region. The paths run through a landscape of rolling hills and hedgerows. You will pass through small hamlets with stone houses and places steeped in history. Suitable for families.

Saint-Laurent d'Andenay, a small village near Montchanin, is crossed by the Paris-Marseille TGV line. During this walk, you can take a picnic break on the banks of the pond, where tables are available.

During this hike, you will leave from the entrance to Saint-Laurent d'Andenay and head to the village of Écuisses along the RCEA (Route Centre Europe Atlantique), then cross Écuisses les Sept-Écluses via the greenway along the Canal du Centre. In Écuisses, you have the option of visiting the Canal Museum and Villa Perrusson. Then, still following the greenway, you will reach the Jeanne Rose bridge and your starting point via the D18.

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.

This is the third section of the southern Burgundy crossing, which is part of the VIA Burgundia. From the confluence of the Yonne and Seine rivers in Montereau-Fault-Yonne, it crosses the whole of Burgundy to reach Macon. It is also the Eternal Burgundy trail, where history blends with heritage to reveal the region's beautiful natural surroundings.

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.

A beautiful, undulating route that will take you along a newly marked trail through the municipal woodlands of Blanot, offering some very pretty views, and through the Combe du Nivernais. It continues along the Grison with its old mills before climbing up to Culey and reaching the shade of the woods on the Faitral path, which offers glimpses of the Grosne valley in places.
