Great for warming up your legs before the Urcy climb

A great route out of Dijon (from the city center). The canal runs right past the center of Dijon. The route then continues past Pont de Pany into the Ouche Valley.

Not only rivers as natural watercourses run through the country, but also many - artificially created - canals. In times long past, they were an essential part of the transport infrastructure, before rail and road took over this role. But even if this canal flowing through Burgundy is nowhere near as famous as the almost legendary "Canal du Midi" (which has at least been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site), the "Canal de Bourgogne" here near Dijon offers very nice opportunities for exercise in nature.

In Pouilly en Auxois, the canal passes through an underground passage. By bike, you have to cross the town, a route that is not very well marked..…

Summit section with summit tunnel in Pouilly-en-Auxois The summit section on the Canal de Bourgogne is 6 km long. Due to the terrain, this length could only be achieved by using a tunnel. This is 3333 m long and completely straight, so that you can see the other end from one end. It is up to 34 m below the surface of the earth. Source: Wikipedia And we really didn't notice; in Pouilly-en-Auxois we crossed the main European watershed between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. Another 76 locks await us from here on the way down via Dijon to the mouth of the Burgundy Canal in the Saône near the small town of Saint-Jean-de-Losne. From now on we're going downhill to the Saône. If you want: >>> Châteauneuf-en-Auxois, labelled “Most beautiful villages in France” >>> Les Jardins De Barbirey

At the top of the valley, this huge rock is a top climbing spot. The view is also impressive.

From the top of these cliffs, the panoramic view is magnificent. The cliffs have a height of about 100 meters and a dizzying drop, so you have to be careful.

A nice way to do the route by bike.
