Along the Yonne: discovering its banks
The Yonne offers a peaceful and vibrant setting, perfect for a rejuvenating break. Between riverside walks, shaded parks, and towns steeped in history, it reveals a heritage as natural as it is cultural. On foot or by bike, discover the banks of this nearly 300 km long river!
Located in Joigny, the Hotel Le Paris-Nice** is the ideal starting point for exploring the banks of the Yonne.
From Joigny, an easy 11 km walk awaits you. Accessible to all, it first runs along the diversion canal before following the Yonne on the way back.
The route is flat, shaded in places, and ideal for contemplation. With a little luck, you might come across cormorants, wild swans, or ducks splashing along the water.
Ideal for recharging your batteries just a stone's throw from the city!
Listed as a Remarkable Site and City of France, Auxerre offers one of the most beautiful panoramas in the Yonne region.
By following the 5 km of walks along the quays, you'll enjoy a lush green setting.
And discover the Parc de l'Arbre Sec: typical of 19th-century botanical gardens and listed as a bird sanctuary, it houses a superb botanical collection of trees and shrubs.
Another inspiring stop: Migennes. Here again, the walk is perfect for all tastes. Along the banks of the Burgundy Canal, you'll enjoy a peaceful, natural setting.
A great idea to extend your getaway, with the option of continuing to Sens, following the banks of the Yonne. A great opportunity to admire the first Gothic-style cathedral along the way!
