La Randonnée Gourmande

On Sunday we enjoyed a wonderful walk around Celles-sur-Ource as part of their ‘randonnée gourmande’, a ticket only event available online some months before the day. It’s an extremely well organised and convivial 10km walk, with food and drink, through the vineyards and forests around Celles-sur-Ource. The sky was beautifully clear, with the temperature a very pleasant 29°C, although it did warm up a bit more towards the end of the day.

It’s very well signposted along the route, with lots of unique hand painted signs that keep you going in the right direction throughout the day.

Along the walk you stop off for your various ‘gourmande’ courses - canapés, starter, main, cheese and dessert, all washed down with a fresh, cold glass of champagne at each stop. They also had a marching band helping us along the way, and a jazz band to chill out to at lunch. It was such a delightful way to spend a Sunday.
