In this area, the cycle path along the Yonne is paved with asphalt which is in excellent condition. It is a dream to drive here, because you can enjoy the surroundings without having to constantly pay attention to catching the best line on the way, as is necessary elsewhere.

This section of the cycle path along the Yonne is highly recommended, as it has mostly impeccable asphalt.
