Greenway of Southern Burgundy

Highlight • Cycleway

Superb Voie Verte which passes through the vineyard. On this portion, we discover the Mâconnais which covers the hillsides up to the rocks of Solutre-Pouilly-Vergisson. A must that enriches this itinerary labeled “Bike & cheese”.

Next comes Berzé-le-Châtel. Another steep climb, but the view …
