Small town on the bank of the Yonne, and at the junction of the Gurgy Diversion, a section of Canal that joins two parts of the river.

A magnificent cycle and walking path along the river from Monetau to the junction with the A6 motorway (you will continue below). On the way, you can admire the river, several bridges and small islands, as well as flowery green spaces along the route.

At the statue of the namesake Paul Bert you will find a small balcony from which you can enjoy the view of the old town in peace.
