Branges, on the banks of the pretty River Seille, is popular with nature lovers and anglers.

 

St-Jean-de-Losne

Base manager Nicole Gilles welcomes you to St. Jean de Losne. St Jean De Losne is a small town located on the junction of several different waterways. It is still a large business center for barges but it is also one of the largest pleasure boat marinas in Europe. From St Jean De Losne, you are only 20kms from the vineyards with famous names such as Gevrey Chambertin or Clos Vougeot.

Branges

Base manager Colin Farrow welcomes you to Branges. From the base, on the banks of the river Seille, you can wind your way through the meadowlands and fields to the splendid town of Louhans, famous for its poultry fair. Or perhaps you’ll choose to follow the majestic Soane river south towards Macon, famous for its rich red wines or head north towards Verdun where the Canal du Centre and the Canal du Rhone au Rhin open up your choice of cruising routes and destinations still further..
