Parc Naturel Regional du Morvan
The Regional Parc du Morvan is found in central Burgundy.
The Morvan Natural Park was designated in 1970 in an effort to preserve this natural environment. It now protects approximately 2,800 square kilometres of countryside.
The park is pretty well represented by the picture below - hedges, areas of woodland and forest, small agriculture, and streams and rivers, with occasional villages and towns.
The official centre for the park is at St Brisson, where you can find lots of information about hiking, waymarked trails, cycling and touring in the region.
Autun is to the north of the Morvan region, which includes the towns of Avallon, Vezelay and Saulieu as well as many pretty villages scattered throughout the rolling countryside. Arnay-le-Duc, Chaumard, Corbigny, Lormes, Precy-sous-Thil and Saint-Honore-les-Bains are among some of the most noteworthy.
