September 3, 2023,Pont-de-Pany bis Pont d‘Ouche am Canal de Bourgogne

An easy and relaxing tour always between Canal de Bourgogne and the small river Ouche. Romantic mood. At 34 degrees the shade was welcome.

The first section, which is accompanied by the Ouche, is another step towards Dijon.
The valley of the Ouche, like the part from Bligny-sur-Ouche to Pont-l'Ouche, is very scenic. Not very far, with steep slopes and little gradient. The distances between the locks are relatively large and there are a few rest areas.
