A fast route, for an ideal family walk in the vicinity of Montbard. The Abbaye de Fontenay will be your main attraction on this eleven-kilometre loop. This religious building, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a symbol of Romanesque art in France. You can visit the cloister, the monks' dormitory and the gardens.
In summer, forging demonstrations allow visitors to learn the techniques of this ancient craft. If you want to extend your walk, go to the Burgundy canal or the town of Montbard, where you can visit the Buffon museum and park, among other things.
