Nivernais and Yonne with Le Boat

The Nivernais and the River Yonne with Le Boat

Le Boat has a comprehensive choice of boats for self-drive cruises on the Canal du Nivernais and the River Yonne

With some of the most beautiful countryside and villages to see in France, the Nivernais Loire provides a truly peaceful haven from everyday life. Marvel at the quiet as you cruise through majestic forests abundant in fauna and flora, ancient villages perched high on rugged rocks, and the occasional Medieval town.
