Vaison Piste

In Torcy, in Saône-et-Loire (not to be confused with its Île-de-France namesake), Vaison Piste sets up its outdoor track near Montceau-les-Mines and Le Creusot. The site sits in the historic Burgundy mining basin, in a semi-rural area typical of the Charolais-Brionnais. It's an address valued by Saône-et-Loire drivers and southern Morvan karting enthusiasts on outings with friends or family weekends.

The open-air layout offers a varied course in the open setting typical of the Charolais plateaus. Several kart engine sizes are available depending on driver level, from entry-level models to punchier versions for regulars chasing timed sessions. Conditions shift with continental Burgundian weather : faster and drier in summer, more demanding on rainy autumn days. The site stays accessible for adult drivers and regularly hosts sessions among friends, stag and hen parties, and corporate seminars from the Creusot-Montceau basin.

Torcy is 5 minutes from Montceau-les-Mines, 20 from Le Creusot, and an hour from Mâcon. The region offers plenty to extend the visit: Le Creusot and its industrial history (Museum of Man and Industry), Cluny abbey 45 minutes away, Charolles capital of Charolais beef, Charolais-Brionnais green lanes, or a detour to Autun and its Gallo-Roman remains. A local option for southern Saône-et-Loire residents and a motorsport stop for travellers on a southern Burgundy circuit looking for an off-the-beaten-track activity.
