Tips from the Community

Marc Benoit
May 14, 2026, Vue sur le Cirque du Bout du Monde et Vauchignon

The village is located near Nolay, at the bottom of a green valley where the Cozanne, a trout river, flows. At the foot of the Bout du Monde valley and its waterfall, a "refuge" for the peregrine falcon or the white-bellied swift, and a veritable dictionary of protected cave-dwelling flora and fauna, the village of Cormot-Vauchignon is a unique and remarkable site where hiking or cycling tours are enchanting. Starting point for several hiking circuits, including that of "Saint-Antoine via the Roman road". Its St Antoine chapel is dominated by cliffs, a popular climbing site with 237 routes. The Eagle Owl watches.

A hiking trail to the right circles the Hill of the Three Crosses. First uphill, as always, then a leisurely descent. Afterwards, a quick lunch with friendly people in Santenay's market square!

The name "Montagne de Trois Croix" already hinted at it, and so it's no real surprise to find more than just a summit cross up here, which – as is common in many places – crowns the mountain peak. The central cross, standing in the middle, points the observer to the execution of the incarnate Son of God, Jesus of Nazareth. According to biblical tradition, however, he was not condemned to death and crucified alone, but together with two criminals. Pope Francis, who died on Easter Monday, once composed the following prayer on this subject: "Help us, Son of Man, to free ourselves from the arrogance of the thief, the robber on your left, and of the short-sighted and the corrupt (...) Instead, we ask you, Son of God, to identify us with the good thief who looked at you with eyes full of shame, repentance, and hope; who, with the eyes of faith, saw divine victory in your apparent defeat and thus knelt before your mercy and grace and stole paradise with honesty and integrity.
