The effort of cycling up to the top of the eternal hill is well rewarded by the beauty of the village. Perhaps a bit too touristy in high season but perfect at the end of October! Accommodation for pilgrims, by donation (but 25€ recommended) open to hikers. The Way of St. James towards Clamecy (and the Nivernais canal) is accessible by gravel bike (with panniers!).

The hermitage of La Cordelle is the first Franciscan settlement in France. Located at the foot of the Vézelay hill, the hermitage of La Cordelle is today inhabited by three brothers who live the heart of the Franciscan mission there: fraternity and the attentive welcome of all, believers or not.

This church, dedicated to the Holy Cross (Latin: "Santa Croce"), derives its patronage from the cross on which Jesus Christ died. The veneration of the Holy Cross is largely based on Saint Helena, the mother of Emperor Constantine the Great (who, after his victory at the Milvian Bridge in Rome, recognized Christianity as a religion and ended the long period of persecution with the Edict of Toleration of Milan in 312). She made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land (Israel/Palestine) in the early fourth century and brought numerous relics back to Europe, including the "True Cross," on which Jesus Christ was crucified. Helena is therefore often depicted with a cross as an attribute. The Church celebrates the Feast of the Discovery, public presentation, and veneration of the Holy Cross—called the "Exaltation of the Holy Cross"—on September 14th.
