Monument
Cercy-la-Tour
This village takes its name from the Tower of the old feudal castle, of which only ruins now remain. The village is pleasant, especially when strolling the small lanes leading to a terrace which overlooks the whole valley.
Monument
Décize
Overlooking the rocky island of the Loire, Decize is a former fortified town that offers visitors a rewarding stop filled with heritage discoveries. With five bridges to cross, the town is a strategic hub for transportation routes. This unique geographical position makes it an essential stop in the heart of France. The town thrived thanks to the transport of goods by river and recreational boating, with the Port de la Jonction and its 80 mooring rings serving as its main ambassador. Decize is also nicknamed "Fishermen’s Paradise" due to its abundance of fish, offering wonderful surprises of all sizes such as zander, chub, perch, pike, and catfish.From Cercy la Tour to Panneçot, 13 km, 5 Lock(s), 2.7 h of navigation
