Boucle bois de Marcioux

You start your walk in front of the old Tacot station, which used to link Corbigny to Saulieu. This small train with 3 or 4 carriages carried people and goods (livestock, poultry, wood, lime, stone) across the Morvan every day. It took 5 hours to cover the 80km journey. You then plunge into the coolness of the Morvan forest. In this cocoon of green, alternating deciduous and coniferous trees, you can observe the flora and fauna typical of our granite Morvan. As you leave the forest, you'll pass by the Moulin du Bois pond and cross a small stream called the Auxois. Don't be fooled by its size, it played a role in the floating of timber from the Morvan to Paris and enabled several of the town's mills to operate. Its waters feed the Etang du Goulot, a popular spot for walking, swimming, sports and family activities. The river leaves Lormes in style, flowing into the Narvau gorges, which we recommend you explore...
