A "chemin de halage", in German "treidelpfad", which runs alongside the waterway right next to the bed of the river or canal, was an indispensable part of the transport infrastructure in earlier times. Before ships could move using motor power, horses ran along the bank and pulled the ship against the current. This was called "treideln", and that is how the "treidelpfad" got its name. Where these paths directly on the bank have been preserved, they are now popular with hikers and cyclists.

Tonnerre is a small village with character nicknamed "La petite Venise bourguignonne". To see among others: the perpetual waters of the mysterious Fosse Dionne, the Saint-Pierre Church, the Hôtel Dieu and its garden of medicinal plants, the vineyard hillsides producing in particular Bourgogne Epineuil.

A long ribbon of water crossing the countryside for 242 kilometers: here is the Burgundy Canal, which connects the Yonne to the Saône and Migennes to Saint-Jean-de-Losne. For some, it is the heart of Burgundy that opens up through these quiet valleys dotted with famous churches and castles.

The Canal de Bourgogne connects the rivers Yonne and Saône, and thus the Atlantic and the Mediterranean via other rivers and canals. Here the river bike path is paved and nice to ride a racing bike.
