Sweet summer walking holiday

Carefree walking holiday:

Sweet summer walking in the Morvan

 

Would you like to take beautiful walks in the rolling landscape of the Morvan? Choose a carefree walking holiday at Château du Pommoy. Delicious food and overnight stay in a luxurious room with comfortable beds and private bathroom.

 

Choose from our walking menu the walks that suit you best. Full day trips or shortened walks in combination with a dip in the pool.

 

In sweltering summer weather, we adapt the walks if desired: shadier, near a lake or walking in the early morning or later in the evening. The starry sky is magnificent here!

 

Experiences of participants

“What a beautiful place this is! Luxury rooms with luxurious bathrooms, that is really nice, but the view over the fields is really fantastic. This is how I want to wake up every morning😍.”

 

“… our accommodation in a magnificent chateau where hospitality comes first and after a beautiful walk you are more than well taken care of every day with passion and cheerfulness from our lovely host and hostess. Enjoyment to the fullest!!”

 

Walking selection menu

We know the area and put together a package with beautiful walks, or you can choose from our menu of lighter and more difficult walks. You can go out individually or with the group. You will always receive a good description, and on some tours Ad can – if desired – act as a guide or take you to the starting point. You can take your lunch with you in a bag or backpack, or we can organize (depending on the walk) an extensive picnic.
