A hiking trail to the right circles the Hill of the Three Crosses. First uphill, as always, then a leisurely descent. Afterwards, a quick lunch with friendly people in Santenay's market square!

The name "Montagne de Trois Croix" already hinted at it, and so it's no real surprise to find more than just a summit cross up here, which – as is common in many places – crowns the mountain peak. The central cross, standing in the middle, points the observer to the execution of the incarnate Son of God, Jesus of Nazareth. According to biblical tradition, however, he was not condemned to death and crucified alone, but together with two criminals. Pope Francis, who died on Easter Monday, once composed the following prayer on this subject: "Help us, Son of Man, to free ourselves from the arrogance of the thief, the robber on your left, and of the short-sighted and the corrupt (...) Instead, we ask you, Son of God, to identify us with the good thief who looked at you with eyes full of shame, repentance, and hope; who, with the eyes of faith, saw divine victory in your apparent defeat and thus knelt before your mercy and grace and stole paradise with honesty and integrity.

Beautiful point, but find a good route to get there, it can be very muddy and slippery through the forest in a wet season.

This section runs beautifully through the rocky slopes, but is safe if you're reasonably sure-footed. The paths lead past dry meadows where you'll find many orchids. There are also beautiful views of Santenay le-Haut and, on clear days, beyond.

Weather permitting, this spot offers a wonderful view. Two signs provide orientation. Dolmen sites around the mountain indicate that it played a role for humans as early as 5000 BC, but rare plants and animals also thrive here. Another unique feature is that the border between two departments runs here, so one of the three crosses is in Côte-d'Or and the other two in Saône-et-Loire.

The GR7 near the Montagne des Trois Croix takes you along a stunning stretch with expansive views of the rolling hills of the Burgundy region. As you hike, you’ll pass through picturesque forests, open meadows and rocky outcrops, all while enjoying the serene scenery around you.
