アリュイ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ18

モルヴァン地方のヴェネツィア！

The Canal du Nivernais is a watershed canal; with 32 locks it goes up 74 m to 260 m above sea level and with 78 locks it goes down 165 m. The highest section leads through 3 tunnels near the municipality of La Collancelle. The Sardy lock staircase is worth seeing; with 16 locks over 3.50 km it goes down quickly.

Pretty village typical of the region with several shops, cafes and restaurants. All that remains are the ramparts and two partially preserved buildings of the Moulins-Engilbert castle which dates from the 10th to the 15th centuries.

The Château d’Aunay-les Bois is listed as a historic monument. It is presented in a predominantly 17th century condition, probably on older bases. It underwent significant work campaigns in the 18th century. In 2021, the fire spread to the entire castle and only the northeast tower retained its roof and floor.

Parts of this castle have existed since the 10th century. Its location in the loop of the Aron probably served as a defensive position. It couldn't be more adventurous: a tunnel leads from the castle to the crypt of the nearby Alluy church!

The castle is a hidden place in Burgundy, surrounded by the Canal du Nivernais and the Aron River. Its gardens are labeled "Remarkable Garden".

The Nivernais canal connects the Loire basin and that of the Yonne. The canal is punctuated by four locks and bordered by a cycle path bordered by the forest.

Who is fed up with the endless ups and downs in the Morvan. Attractive flat section on the canal. Topping also okay for racing bikes.
