An IGN map for exploring the Yonne

The IGN TOP100 Yonne map is ideal for planning a trip to northern Burgundy. It provides an overview of the department, making it easier to organize travel between historic towns, valleys, vineyards, forests, and charming villages.

It covers the major areas of Auxerre, Avallon, and Sens, allowing you to easily plan a sightseeing itinerary, a cycling trip, or a hiking schedule. With its 1:100,000 scale, it offers a clear view of distances and access routes.

This map is particularly useful for planning a stay in the Yonne without being restricted to main roads. It helps identify back roads, valleys, natural sites, monuments, and points of interest to include in your journey.

Hiking, cycling, and Burgundian heritage

The Yonne is perfect for walking and cycling excursions. With locations ranging from Auxerre, Sens, and Avallon to the landscapes of the Morvan, the Chablis vineyards, valleys, and canals, the department offers plenty of ideas for getaways.

For hikers, the map helps locate GR® (long-distance) and GR® de Pays (regional) trails. It assists in choosing a hiking area, identifying access points, and planning outings. However, for following a precise route on the ground, a local IGN TOP25 map remains more suitable.

This map is also very useful for cyclists. It shows cycling routes, greenways, and the local road network, enabling you to plan loops, prepare a stage of a journey, or connect various tourist sites by bike.
