Our recommendations for lunch
Bike ride between lake and gardens
After a delicious Burgundy meal, we decided to use the bicycles included in the City Pass. We headed for Lake Kir via the Arquebuse gardens and the Ouche promenade. A deep breath of fresh air in a bucolic setting just a stone's throw from Dijon centre.
There are several parks and gardens in Dijon, including Arquebuse and the Darcy gardens right in the city centre, an easy place to enjoy a nature break where you'll be greeted by the famous statue of the Bear of Pompon.
