Welcome to Yonne, you're already in Burgundy!
Just an hour south of Paris, here you are in the land of canals and vineyards, fertile hills and huge forests. A land, named after a river, that features a seldom-seen natural diversity.
So taste it, enjoy it, breathe it, experience it… gently or passionately, it has the flavour of an astonishing mixture of tranquillity and excitement, silence and harmony, lavishness and moderation.

I do my first flight in a hot air balloon !

Without a jolt, fligh above Vézelay and discover the Morvan landscape with another eye. After pumping up the balloon, you will take place in the nacelle and take off for a flight above the Vézelay country. At the landing, a wine degustation will be offered, as the tradition wants. A good idea for new sensations and getting some fresh air...
