A beautiful forest cycle ride, winding through the remains of the Gaulish village of Bibracte! The goal after the Col du Rebout is a one-way loop that descends to Saint-Léger-sous-Beuvray.

In the Middle Ages it was the seat of a powerful baronship, to which a rich heritage testifies. It is now a pleasant town with nice shops and two supermarkets. The Barons Tower (tour des Barons) from the 14th century, remnant of the castle of the Barons of Luzy, now houses a museum dedicated to the professions of yesteryear. The town hall of Luzy, located in the hôtel Nault de Champagny, has in its hall of honor (salle d'honneur) eight beautiful Aubusson tapestries from the early 18th century, classified as Historical Monuments, on which the life of the Biblical heroine Esther is told.

Bibracte is a natural and archaeological site. Ephemeral city, capital of the powerful Aedui people, which was a major commercial and political center in the 2nd and 1st centuries BC. The remains of the town are now surrounded by lush greenery. The quality of the landscapes and the biological richness of the environment are such that the entire Mont Beuvray massif has been classified as a site of landscape and scientific interest and is classified as ZNIEFF and Natura 2000, while the summit is classified as a historic site.
