Explore the Voies Vertes in southern Burgundy by bike

Embark on an adventure and cycle the Grande Boucle Mâcon-Chalon, an iconic route linking two of Burgundy’s historic towns. This picturesque loop takes you through the region’s renowned vineyards, where you can taste local wines at authentic estates while admiring the rolling countryside. The route now links Chalon to Mâcon via the Côte Chalonnaise greenway, which passes through the vineyards, and Mâcon to Chalon via the Blueway, which follows the River Saône along the old towpaths.

EuroVelo 6 is one of Europe’s most famous cycle routes, stretching over 4,700 kilometres through 10 countries. It links the Atlantic to the Black Sea, passing through varied landscapes, historic sites and towns steeped in culture. The widely accessible route is popular with cyclists of all abilities, thanks to its adapted infrastructure and breathtaking views of rivers, forests and valleys.

The Tourist Office is now offering you a complete collection of geolocated routes on Komoot, the benchmark application for hiking, cycling, trail walking and family outings. Thanks to the reliable GPS tracking and integrated audio guidance, you’ll enjoy hands-free navigation: your phone announces every change of direction and tells you, along the way, the heritage secrets, natural curiosities and local anecdotes prepared by our teams.

Once you’ve created your Komoot account (free in just a few clicks), all you have to do is follow the Tourist Office’s official collection: you’ll be able to download the maps offline, plan your outings with complete peace of mind and record your personal statistics. Whether it’s an easy family loop, a day hike, a mountain bike outing or a sporty cycling route, all the routes are updated regularly to guarantee accurate information on the state of the paths, any diversions and new points of interest.

To make the most of the experience: take along an external battery for longer outings, opt for open-ear headphones or your phone’s loudspeaker to stay aware of your surroundings, and respect nature by staying on the signposted paths and taking back your rubbish.

Choose your route, activate the audio guidance and let yourself be led. When you return, don’t hesitate to share your impressions and photos: your feedback helps us to continually enrich the Tourist Office’s Komoot experience.
