LE PAQUIER FANÉ
Campsite ****
From the Paquier Fané Campground in Chagny, set off to discover authentic Burgundy: vineyards, charming villages, exceptional heritage, and gentle itineraries. Ideally located, your campground in Saône-et-Loire is the perfect starting point for exploring, strolling, and savoring.
Between dry stone walls, enclosed vineyards, and chapels, the Voie des Vignes connects Beaune to Santenay, then continues the adventure to Nolay along the old railway line.
Starting at the Parc de la Bouzaise in Beaune and ending in Remigny, the route passes through twelve towns, offering picture-postcard landscapes and stops at local wineries.
Why do we love it?
An accessible cycle route, villages with evocative names, welcoming wine cellars, and ever-changing panoramas: the essence of a camping holiday in Burgundy.
A City of Art and History on the banks of the Saône, Chalon-sur-Saône charms visitors with its Saint-Vincent Cathedral, its eponymous square, and its half-timbered houses. From the Romanesque nave to the neo-Gothic towers, the complex tells the story of a thousand years of architecture.
The southern gateway to Burgundy, Mâcon stretches out along its quays facing the Saint-Laurent bridge and the Lamartine esplanade. Stroll through the old town: colorful houses, Vieux Saint-Vincent, Ursulines Museum.
Savour the wines of the Mâconnais region (Pouilly-Fuissé, Saint-Véran) and its fine restaurants, then cycle along the Voie Bleue before returning to Chagny.
Why do we recommend it?
For the atmosphere of the narrow streets, lively terraces, and strolls along the water, combine with a tasting... or a break at the market.
Twenty minutes from Beaune, Chagny boasts the Romanesque Saint-Martin church, an 18th-century apothecary, an Italian-style theater, and lovely walks along the Canal du Centre. A Station Verte (Green Resort) and gourmet destination, the town is home to shops, a Sunday market, and excellent restaurants.
Why do we recommend it?
Because it is "close to everything": perfect for exploring by bike from your campsite in Saône-et-Loire.
With their colorful roofs, grand courtyard, and historic rooms, the Hospices de Beaune are the region's unmissable gem. Their vineyard, mainly producing premier and grand cru wines, reaches its peak each year during the famous November auction.
Why do we recommend them?
For an immersion in Burgundy's hospitable history and a tête-à-tête with flamboyant architecture.
Located in the heart of Beaune, the Wine Museum traces the epic story of vines and wine: ancient tools, scenes of work, textile works (Lurçat, Tourlière), and everyday objects recount the gestures of winegrowers and the richness of a living heritage.
Why do we recommend it?
Because it enlightens your tastings: understanding climates means enjoying wines more.
By bike? Ask for our ideas for loops and connections between the Voie des Vignes and the Canal du Centre. With the family? Alternate between museums, wine cellars, and nature stops. And in the evening, enjoy the peace and quiet of Camping du Paquier Fané, your camping haven in Burgundy, to prolong your break.
