Burgundy Canal History
The Burgundy Canal was conceived in
1607 and work on the canal started in
1727. The canal was completed in 1832
when barges made the first crossing.
The Village of Pouilly en Auxios, north of
Dijon, is the highest point on the canal at
378 meters above sea level. (1,240 feet)
A three-kilometer tunnel (2.07 miles) is
one of the intriguing features of this
marvel of engineering
A complex system of reservoirs and
feeder canals keeps the Burgundy Canal
running and makes it an intriguing
engineering accomplishment and a
wonderful place to enjoy a walk, bike
ride, or culinary barge cruise through the
French countryside.

The area traversed by the Burgundy Canal is some of the most scenic
in France and includes rolling farm country, small villages built in the
11th century, and imposing hilltop castles and chateaus of the
Medieval period.
The Culinary Barge Cruise will include a chef who will cook the meals
while you cruise along and then put up for the night and your evening
meal. A van will follow and provide transportation to the villages,
vineyards, and allow the crew to shop for fresh vegetables and the local
wines in the villages.
The barge will have bikes aboard to tour the canal village and the
canal.
Much of the canal remains just the way it was when constructed in the
17th Century; the locks operate by hand for the most part and the
locking through process can involve the passengers.
