- Notes
- Wine
• Burgundy’s wine region, arguably one of the most influential in the world, stretches south from Dijon towards Lyon taking in the many wine making villages of the Côte D’Or, Côte Chalonnaise, Côte Maconnaise and Beaujolais wines. All the villages, as well as many of the chateaux’s themselves, are easily accessible by car or by local expert led wine tours. For wine lovers a trip to Burgundy would not be the same without a visit to Chablis, Meursault, Vosne-Romanée, Corton or the Montrachet villages.
Activities
• Lyon, Dijon, Chalon-Sur-Saône, Autun, Cluny, Tournus and Beaune are all steeped in history and local architecture and make for interesting visits
• For the more energetic there are the Jura Mountains which provide a beautiful setting for walking, hiking, mountain biking, horse riding, cross country skiing, climbing, fishing, swimming and sailing.
• Cycling & rollerblading is possible along the 100kms of dedicated greenways, named Voies Vertes.
