Levernois: Waterways, History and Golf

Levernois can be explored through several distinct themes: a 12th-century church, the Bouzaize with its stone bridges, a water-themed discovery trail, and walking, cycling and golf activities. When planning your trip, it helps to start by choosing your main interest. Are you most interested in the town’s history, a particular route or golf? Different starting points suit different interests.

Church, Bridges and Local History

The Église Saint-Jean-Baptiste is located in Levernois. It dates from the 12th century and has a square bell tower. If you are interested in historic religious buildings, you’ll find two specific features here: its date and the shape of its tower. The Bouzaize flows through Levernois and is crossed by five stone bridges with double arches. Their number and design make the river crossings a distinct architectural theme. Another historical point of interest is the Maltese cross. It is associated with the Knights Hospitaller, whose headquarters were in Levernois before moving to Beaune. The church, river crossings and cross represent different themes: religious architecture, bridge-building and the local history of the order. Together, they offer several ways to explore the town’s buildings and history.

The Sentier de l'eau: Water and Nature

The Sentier de l'eau is 2.5 kilometres long and features six interpretation stations and twelve botanical markers. It explains the water cycle from the Hautes Côtes to the Mediterranean, as well as how a watermill works. This presents two perspectives side by side: water as part of a cycle spanning a wide area, and water in the practical role it plays in a mill. The interpretation stations and botanical markers offer different ways to engage with the topic. If you’d like to focus on a specific learning experience connected with nature during your trip, this discovery trail offers a clearly defined theme.

Walking and Cycling on the Voie du Tacot

The Voie du Tacot is suitable for a Sunday walk as well as for multi-day hikes. When planning, you can first decide how much time you have: a single outing or a multi-day hiking trip. As a cycling route, the Voie du Tacot passes through Levernois and connects Beaune with Sainte-Marie-la-Blanche. So, on foot, the length of the trip is the key consideration; by bike, it is the named connection between the two places. Check access details locally before setting out, as route conditions may change over time.

Golf Among Scenery and Playing Options

Golf de Beaune-Levernois has several thousand planted trees and nine lakes. Alongside these features of the course, there are different playing and learning options: a 9-hole course is open to beginners and children; forward tees make the golf course accessible to players of all abilities. Personal coaching is also available for players of all abilities. You can consider the course format and instruction separately when making your decision: the 9-hole course describes the playing option, while coaching offers individual guidance. This can help you decide whether you’re looking for a round on the 9-hole course or personal instruction. If the landscape features are important to your decision, check the latest course information before your trip.
