Getting to and around GAM

L’Autunois is ideally located in the heart of Burgundy, in the north of Saône-et-Loire on the foothills of the Morvan, close to Beaune, Chalon-sur-Saône, Dijon.
Find out how to get to Autunois Morvan on this page. Whether you’re coming from France or abroad, we’ll explain it all.

CAR

The preferred means of transport to get to and around Grand Autunois Morvan is by car. Not only are you independent of your departure and arrival times, but you also enjoy the varied landscapes between hills and plateaus.

For a reduced carbon footprint, you can also consult the various websites of bus journey providers such as Flixbus, BlaBlabus, etc. What’s more, new MOBIGO bus services have just been introduced to and from the Le Creusot-Montceau-Montchanin TGV station, to coincide with train arrivals and departures. In Autun, the number of bus routes has also increased over the year, making it easier for you to get around Autun.

However, if you want to travel to the Morvan or outside Autun, it’s best to rent a car.

TRAIN

We’re lucky to have a TGV station close to Autun, which reduces travel time from Paris to 1h15 and 45 minutes from Lyon (station to station).

As the “Le Creusot-Montceau-Montchanin” TGV station is located near the commune of “Le Creusot”, you’ll need to drive from the station to Autun, and count on a 2h00 journey from Paris and 1h15 from Lyon (TGV + road).

To come from Germany, a daily TGV line links Frankfurt am Main to the Chalon-sur-Saône TGV station. You can then take a “Mobigo” bus which operates direct routes to Autun. If you want to get around Autun, it’s also best to rent a car from Chalon-sur-Saône, as you’ll save time avoiding the bus timetable and be able to move around the Grand Autunois Morvan at your convenience.

Another TER station in Nevers in the Nièvre allows you to get closer to Saône-et-Loire too. You’ll then need to take a TER from Nevers to Étang-sur-Arroux, then a shuttle bus from this commune to Autun if your final destination is Autun, otherwise the best thing to do is rent a car from Nevers to be able to get around the Autunois Morvan.

You can either rent a car or take a shuttle bus from the TGV stations. By car, it takes 35 minutes from Le Creusot and 1h00 from Chalon-sur-Saône . By bus, it takes 50 minutes from Le Creusot and 1h10 from Chalon-sur-Saône. Check out the new direct bus timetable between Le Creusot-Montceau-Montchanin TGV Station and Autun.

AIRCRAFT

If you’re coming from a more distant destination, compare high-speed trains with planes. For example, it’s very practical to come from Frankfurt on the spot or Barcelona by TGV rather than by plane, estimating airport waiting times and baggage constraints.

If you choose or need to fly, the best option is to land at Paris CDG or Lyon Saint-Exupéry airports and take the TGV that comes directly to the “Le Creusot-Montceau-Montchanin” TGV station.

Autun has its own airfield, contact it to find out about accessibility conditions.
