Salives walks

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

A lovely hike in the Alésia region that will take you from spring to spring. Moderator's note , the source of the Ignon, is inaccessible; see reviews.

A bucolic stroll to the sources of the Seine, passing by a pond designed by a contemporary Swiss artist and the ruins of a former 12th-century hermitage.

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.

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).

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.

This route takes in the small Côte d'Orienne commune of Saint-Martin-du-Mont, the natural site of the Ru Blanc and the remains of a medieval village dating back to the 14th century.

This is another section (2) of the marked trail "Les Balcons du Suzon". It follows on from the first route starting from Messigny-et-Vantoux towards Sainte-Foy. Part of the route is through woods and hillsides with views of the Val Suzon. The walking time depends on the hiker. The time indicated was calculated based on half walking and half trail running. From the start in Sainte Foy: 1 hour 30 minutes. From Sainte Foy back via theGR®7: 30 minutes (jogging pace).

Walk in the listed Val-Suzon valley. The prehistoric Châtelet d'Étaules and its spur bear witness to the early occupation of these places by humans. This valley has long been a crossing point connecting the Seine valley and the Saône valley.

Circular route around and through Gemeaux to discover this picturesque little village in the Côte d'Or, rich in architectural heritage: its market halls, medieval house, church, castle, fountain and wash house.

This circular will take you to the Source du Bué with its curious legend. You can also explore the village, its chapel and its equally anecdotal history, the Templar house, the manor house and the fortified church. In May and June, you can see wild orchids in bloom.
