Where to go in Burgundy: towns, villages, destinations
The heart and soul of Burgundy can be seen throughout its much-loved "terroirs" and territories, that stretch out before us like a painting.
Modestly sized towns, picturesque villages, departments just waiting to be explored and, of course, the green lung of the region, Morvan.

The towns
Throughout Burgundy, there are modestly sized towns that can be explored at your own pace, on foot. Dijon, Auxerre, Mâcon, Nevers, Beaune...all very different but each with so much to admire and explore.

The villages
We also love Burgundy for its picturesque villages. They are small and quaint, ideal for a small-scale adventure, far from the crowds in the big towns and cities.

Morvan
Have you heard of the Morvan? This natural region at the heart of Burgundy is a lush-green slice of heaven. Deep forests, rolling hills, granite rocks in strange shapes, lakes that resemble Canada... This picture-perfect land is made for adventures in the great outdoors!
