Tonnerre

Tonnerre is a busy town with many shops and restaurants, and is the entryway to the green and beautiful countryside that symbolizes the Canal de Bourgogne.  On the skirts of the Chablis wine vineyards, the Canal de Bourgogne strolls through green meadows and there are many historic towns and Chateaux in the area. When you step ashore, don't forget to taste the exceptional local food and wines.  The river Yonne is also accessible from Tonnerre and is ideal for those who also enjoy river cruising.
