Cycling · 22 km to Santenay · almost flat · bike hire from €19 · return by TER

The Voie des Vignes is the best day of the trip to Beaune: a paved lane just for bikes and walkers that leaves the town to the south and crosses, among the vines, the villages of some of Burgundy's best-known wines. To Santenay it is 22 km with little climbing, so anyone who rides a bike can do it, and with an electric one you hardly notice.
The route
You leave Beaune to the south and in a few kilometres you are in Pommard, with its château. Next comes Volnay and then Meursault, the village of the great whites. Beyond come Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet, already among the most expensive names in the vineyard, and at the end Santenay. Each village has wineries with a sign on the door; many only receive visitors by appointment.
You do not have to go to the end. To Meursault and back is about 18 km, a relaxed morning. To Santenay and back, about 44 km: a whole day with lunch on the way. The other option is to go one way only: Beaune, Meursault and Santenay have stations and bikes travel free on regional TER trains.
Bike hire
In Beaune, Bourgogne Randonnées hires bikes at 7 avenue du 8 Septembre: a leisure bike for €19 a day and an electric one for €39, with helmet and lock included. It is open every day, Sundays too, closing at midday. It has child equipment at €15 per item per day. Book the electric one in season.
Practical details
Bring water: between villages there is little shade. The lane is shared with walkers. For tasting, share or spit: alcohol limits apply on a bike too.
