Route des Grands Crus Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The Route des Grands Crus (roughly, "road of the great wines") is the name of a French tourist route situated in Burgundy. The approximately 60-kilometre route runs along the foot of the Côte d'Or escarpment, from Dijon in the north to Santenay in the south. Thus it passes through many of the great appellations of Burgundy wine, hence the name of the route. It takes the visitor through the vineyards of the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune and the back hills (Hautes-Côtes) behind and above the wine slopes. It is punctuated by 33 villages or little towns, including Beaune, many of which have picturesque churches. For route details see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Route_des_Grands_Crus

The Canal du Centre was built between 1783 and 1793 to ensure communication between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic. The greenway that runs alongside the canal is part of EuroVelo 6 and skirts southern Burgundy between the Saône and the Loire.

This segment offers beautiful panoramas of the Santenay vineyards.
