The location of the Burgundy canal
The Burgundy canal is located in central eastern France, the French call this canal, "Le Canal de Bourgogne".
The canal spans across the two eastern counties (departements) of the Yonne and the Cote d'Or for more than 200 kilometers, winding it's way through small towns, villages and valleys. The most important city along the canal is Dijon.
