Saint-Gengoux to Cormatin rail trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This path is part of the famous Voie Verte de Bourgogne du Sud, France's oldest car-free railway path.

The section runs along a perfectly asphalted, flat former railway track. It passes directly under a classic old stone arch bridge and is lined with wooded embankments.

The stretch directly between the old train station in Saint-Gengoux and Cormatin is about 8 kilometers long. It is ideal for families, cyclists, and inline skaters, with no significant gradients.

Cormatin Castle

Highlight • Castle

Very beautiful 17th century chateau to visit, between gardens and moats. Nearby, also a body of water with facilities to spend the day, or the night if you are in a bivouac!

The church Notre-Dame-de-la-Nativité in the French municipality of Malay in the department. The Romanesque parish church was first mentioned in a document in 1095.

It once served as
Deanery (Doyenné) of the famous Abbey of Cluny.


The oldest, eastern part with the choir and transept was built at the end of the 11th century. The three-aisled nave was added in the mid-12th century, followed by the construction of the striking bell tower. The historic building has been classified as a Monument historique and is state-protected since June 16, 1931.

The station's leisure area is very practical. There are picnic tables, a bicycle repair station, toilets and a children's play area. At this location there is also a muscle or electric bike rental service.
