I highly recommend visiting the abbey church of St Thibault in St Thibault! A pure marvel!

A bucolic, clean, well-maintained, and shaded spot, with tables and trash cans for picnicking. It's officially a Paris commune, but it looks nothing like Paris.

There's a signposted and very beautiful circular trail that includes the source of the Seine. Learn more on the official website here: https://www.cotedor-randonnee.com/

The Canal takes a passage under the town of Pouilly, here you will no longer be able to follow the Canal, an alternative route that is not always easy to find (thanks Komoot).

Wikipedia reports: "The source of the Seine is located on the plateau of Langres, 25 km north-west of Dijon in the Côte-d'Or department in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region, 470 m above sea level. A special feature is that the sources of the Seine were the property of the city of Paris from 1864 onwards. An artificial grotto was built a year later to protect the main source and a statue of a nymph was erected to symbolize the river. Paris has since returned the property to the region. Near the source are the remains of a Gallo-Roman temple in which a Dea Sequana (Latin goddess of the Seine) was worshipped. The archaeological finds from this are now in the archaeological department of the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Dijon."

A castle here, a palace there... That's why we always like to come here. A short stop by bike is worth it...

The church of St. Thibault has been restored and is worth a detour. However, I haven't seen any restaurants in the village, I fear we will have to wait for Pouilly to find something near the canal.
