Morvan National Park
The Morvan National Park is a vast low mountain range characterised by unspoilt, tranquil natural landscapes. Dense forests, rolling hills, clear lakes and numerous streams and rivers characterise this relatively sparsely populated region. The park provides a habitat for a diverse range of flora and fauna and is considered an important refuge for nature. At the same time, the Morvan is a popular destination for nature-based tourism: well-developed hiking and cycling trails, swimming lakes and small villages invite visitors to relax and enjoy active leisure activities. Traditional architecture, regional craftsmanship and a close connection to the landscape give the Morvan its authentic and down-to-earth character.
