Area.

The pure and unspoilt landscape of the Morvan is very suitable for walkers, cyclists (mountain bike, racing bike and electric bicycle) and those seeking tranquility. A walking route has been set out directly from our gite. There is also a mountain bike trail near our house.
From La Chapelle-sous-Uchon a winding road leads up to the viewpoint at Uchon. You can reach it by car or, if you are in very good shape, by bike: Uchon is located at 681 meters, “the pearl of the Morvan” is worth a visit. At the top you have a phenomenal view. You will also find a geological phenomenon: Les Rochers du Carnaval.
A few well-marked walks have been set out around Uchon that lead you past even more striking rocks.
You can also be surprised by the farmer who moves his herd of cows to another pasture.
