Activities and walks
La Poèterie
Housed in a former stoneware pipe factory that has been converted into an artists’ village, La Poèterie offers a programme of concerts.
Petits et grands étangs de Puisaye
You’ll discover no fewer than eight ponds, each with a different shape, size and habitat, not to mention the pools and streams you’ll come across in this region, where Colette certainly admired them all – and, in some cases, loved them. The icing on the cake is that you can have a picnic by the banks of one of them and take a dip in the Bourdon reservoir!
