The village is located near Nolay, at the bottom of a green valley where the Cozanne, a trout river, flows. At the foot of the Bout du Monde valley and its waterfall, a "refuge" for the peregrine falcon or the white-bellied swift, and a veritable dictionary of protected cave-dwelling flora and fauna, the village of Cormot-Vauchignon is a unique and remarkable site where hiking or cycling tours are enchanting. Starting point for several hiking circuits, including that of "Saint-Antoine via the Roman road". Its St Antoine chapel is dominated by cliffs, a popular climbing site with 237 routes.
