Cormatin Castle

Highlight • Castle

Very beautiful 17th century chateau to visit, between gardens and moats. Nearby, also a body of water with facilities to spend the day, or the night if you are in a bivouac!

Landscapes of the Clunisois

Highlight • Viewpoint

Clunisois is a superb hilly region of southern Burgundy. It's a pleasure to cycle along its greenway between forests, vineyards and fields. The landscapes are worth the detour.

May 18, 2023,Voi Verte, von Cluny nach Saint Gengoux

The Voi Verte from Macon via Cluny to Challon sur Saone is one of the oldest cycling routes in France. You drive through the wonderful southern Burgundy via the old railway line. A visit to Cluny or Cormatin Castle with its large garden is one of many highlights.
