Circuit de randonnée : Boucle de la rive gauche de la Cure

Saint-André-en-Morvan boasts a high-quality natural heritage, with its wooded foothills and remarkably well-preserved wild landscapes. Two picturesque and typical valleys, at the bottom of which flow the Cure and the Brinjane, rivers much appreciated by fishermen, divide the 2200 hectares of the territory from one side to the other, creating numerous tourist and scenic spots.
Its built heritage includes a Romanesque church dating back to the 12th century, housing a 16th-century Virgin of Pity and a 15th-century polychrome stone altarpiece depicting scenes from the childhood of Christ. The church, located in the centre of a listed heritage area, served as the model for a painting by Jean-Baptiste Corot, which is currently on display at the Louvre.
The toponymy of certain localities indicates a Gallo-Roman passageway, and the vestiges of the past can also be measured by the number of calvaries and mission crosses, wells and wash-houses, mills and bridges, and "ports" on the River Cure recalling the timber floating industry.
