Tips from the Community
The Col de Beaufer is located in the Monts du Mâconnais, west of Tournus in the Saône-et-Loire department. With a height of only 303 meters, it is more of a gentle transition between the hills of the Tournugeois than a distinct mountain pass. The surrounding area is characterized by forests, meadows, and the typical wine landscapes of southern Burgundy. The pass is the starting point for several hiking and mountain biking trails, which lead through Plottes and the surrounding hills, among other places. The area "Le Cra et Col de Beaufer" is also designated as an ecologically valuable nature zone and covers around 982 hectares.

Don't miss the bicycle museum in Tournus, it is located at the top of the street when leaving the blue path. You will find the entire history of the bicycle there, from the first one (the draisine in 1817) as well as others. The museum staff are passionate volunteers, very welcoming, and who tell you the history of the bicycles. The little bonus after visiting the museum, you can try out unusual old bicycles. I highly recommend it. Nathalie.

The abbey church of Saint-Philibert in Tournus is one of the most important examples of early Romanesque architecture in Central Europe. The mighty west facade, with its battlements and massive walls, is reminiscent of a medieval fortress. The nave features unique, transversely running barrel vaults, which create an extraordinary play of light inside. Beneath the choir lies an ancient crypt, while above the narthex is the upper church, dedicated to Saint Michael.
