Burgundy is to autumn what Christmas is to Alsace: the unmissable destination of the season. And Puisaye-Forterre is the very example of this. From its forests with soft golden colors to its typical villages, from these ponds where the first fogs give this enchanting atmosphere to its castles and emblematic monuments where ocher is everywhere. La Puisaye-Forterre plunges into autumn most naturally in the world.
