생제르맹 데부아 최고의 사이클링 경로

Much more than a city lake... This large lake appears to be a nature reserve, but it was artificially created in the 1970s as a water buffer and recreation area for Bourges. It has since grown into a green oasis where you can spot a surprising number of migratory birds. An added bonus: in summer, concerts and events are regularly held around the lake.

The north west part of this island has (or once had) permaculture gardens. Traces are still there but most activities seem gone.

Lake Auron Beach invites you to enjoy the sun on the sand with friends or family. It's the perfect place for summer, with its supervised swimming area, beach volleyball court, pétanque courts, barbecues and picnic tables, and basketball and tennis courts. It's the perfect place to spend a day outside enjoying the sun.

This 11th-century abbey church features a beautiful stone floor and wooden ceiling. Richard II, Archbishop of Bourges and pioneer of the Gregorian Reforms, is buried here.

Small romantic place

Beautiful route with great views

Walking around Lake Auron is one of the locals' favorite activities. With its 5.5 km circumference, it is an ideal loop for family walks as well as for experienced athletes. Connected to the city center by the green ring road, whether walking, running or cycling, the layout is suitable for all styles of walks. It is not uncommon to come across migratory birds that have taken up residence on the island on your way. The geese and ducks have their own beach, not shy, they will welcome you.

Appointed parish priest of Châteauneuf-sur-Cher in 1861, Abbé Ducros discovered a ruined church. To rebuild it, he decides to subscribe, asking "two pennies" from each child in exchange for which he promises to pray for him the Virgin Mary. In return, he received many "two cents," but also many letters, including one written by a ten-year-old girl, a Semur-en-Brionnais resident.
