Saint-Péreuse walks

A very pleasant walk that passes at the foot of the Toureau de Remondot (the highest point in the area), through the Saulières Forest, near the Étang de l’Île, and ends by skirting the Château de Saulières and its chapel.

A beautiful escape at the gateway to the Morvan Regional Natural Park, along small paths, with landscapes stretching as far as the eye can see, white Charolais cattle and Morvan houses.

In Montigny-en-Morvan, there are several hikes. We did a combination of two hikes: Les rives du Petit Lac (12km) and Les Rives de Pannecière (8km).

A lovely walk starting from the Camping des Soulins, with beautiful panoramic views of Lake Pannecière.

This circular route runs alongside part of Lake Pannecière before climbing up to the ridges, offering fine views of the Morvan hills, before descending through woodland to the part of the lake where the Yonne flows into it. It passes close to a developed rocky outcrop offering superb views of Château-Chinon and the Morvan hills.

Forest hike in the Morvan to discover three healing springs and a chapel far from any human occupation on theGRP® route du Morvan. The route is extremely simple and very well marked in yellow.

A lovely hike in the footsteps of the Maquis, alternating between hedged farmland and forest, with beautiful panoramic views, especially of Lac de Pannecière.

A short route or a Sunday stroll! You’ll discover the port, Châtillon Castle and the Nivernais Canal, which is very popular for boat trips.

A hike designed to showcase the small heritage of this commune in the Nièvre, located on either side of the Canal du Nivernais: castles, beautiful farms and barns, wash houses and fountains, a beautiful variety of paths and panoramic views.

A walk through forests and along the Yonne channel. A magnificent view of the Yonne valley from the aqueduct.

A walk that first follows the Yonne river for several kilometres, then follows the descent of the 16 Collancelle locks.

Set off to discover two magnificent engineering structures located in Nièvre in Burgundy: the Échelle de Sardy-les-Epiry on the Canal du Nivernais and the Rigole d'Yonne. This walk follows the Canal du Nivernais along a greenway. You can admire a series of locks, 16 in total over a little more than 3 km. Your walk continues overlooking the canal, along the edge of the Rigole d'Yonne, which supplies the canal with water from Lake Pannecière.

A hike through varied scenery: fields, pine forest, woodland, stream, and an orientation table with a panoramic view of the Morvan from the Chapelle du Banquet. A printed version of the route is available at the Ouroux-en-Morvan Tourist Office.

Hike to discover the Bellie Fountain in Ouroux en Morvan, as well as the pond and wash house in the village. The hike takes you past the Ouroux-en-Morvan pond and the village wash house.

Immerse yourself in the heart of the Morvan – a historical journey awaits you! This circular route reveals two fascinating eras. Start on the legendary Roman road, trodden by thousands of travellers 2,000 years ago, linking Ouroux-en-Morvan to Razou station. Imagine the carts, the legionaries, the hustle and bustle of that distant era. Then, time speeds up: here you are following in the footsteps of the Tacot, that picturesque train that criss-crossed the Morvan from 1901 to 1939. Picture scenes of daily life, the lively exchanges in the stations, the whistle of the Tacot echoing through the valleys. Beneath your feet, the ancient cobblestones, the remains of the sleepers and the ballast bear witness to those bygone eras. Feel the history, the palpable emotion of these places steeped in memory. This unforgettable immersion transports you into the Morvan’s past, a journey out of time, an adventure with every step.

Let's go back in time to 2008, when the commune of Ouroux-en-Morvan was the geographical centre of the Eurozone. This distinction was calculated by the Institut Géographique National (IGN). The exact point was located in the Bondy forest. However, the centre of the Eurozone changes with the accession of new member countries. Each new accession to the euro zone shifts this central point. Thus, in 2009, with the entry of Slovakia, the centre moved to Liernais, in Côte-d'Or. This "European point" is represented by a piece of granite, and along the route you will find signs explaining the role of the Eurozone.

This circular allows you to see some of the region's mills that are no longer in operation, in the commune of Ouroux-en-Morvan. It will also allow you to discover some of the commune's hamlets.

The first part of this route allows you to discover part of the commune of Ouroux-en-Morvan, passing through the hamlet of Le Plessis, then Savelot. The second part of the route takes you along the Chemin du Tacot, a single track road that ran from Corbigny to Seaulieu. You will pass the old Cœuzon station and the bridge-tunnel over the Chalaux river. You will also have the opportunity to see an almost identical full-size replica of the old Tacot locomotive. You will continue under arches covered in vegetation and finish by walking alongside the Étang d'Ouroux lake. In front of the village hall, you can also admire the blue carriage, which is unique in that it has the same metre gauge as the Tacot.

A short walk to discover Ouroux-en-Morvan, its pond and wetlands, its village and its history. Suitable for all, this pleasant stroll will delight the whole family.

A beautiful hike through the woods. Beautiful scenery and colours. Many thanks to Dédé and Doudou for making the path passable again by clearing it and building this footbridge over the Dragne.
