Gita in bici di un giorno da Beaune a Chagny

This ride takes you from the heart of Beaune—a beautiful Burgundy town famed for its medieval architecture and world-class wines—down to Chagny, a charming village nestled near the Canal du Centre. At just under 24 kilometers, it's a great ride for a leisurely half-day trip.

You’ll roll out of Beaune through quiet country lanes, passing vineyards that have made this region legendary among wine lovers. Most of the ride is on smooth, quiet roads, making it super relaxing and perfect for taking in the scenery. Expect some gentle climbs and rolling hills—it’s Burgundy, after all—but nothing too steep, with a total ascent of just over 165 meters.

The route is mostly paved, though about 30% of the surfaces might be a bit less defined, so a hybrid or gravel bike could be handy. As you approach Chagny, you’ll notice the pace of life slowing down even more. Treat yourself to a bakery stop or a riverside snack by the canal—perfect reward after a quintessential Burgundy spin!
