Dijon to Avignon Route Overview

The Dijon to Avignon route links Burgundy with Provence by following the Saone and Rhone transport axis before joining the Mediterranean high-speed line south of Lyon. A distinctive feature of this trip is the change in landscape: vineyards around Burgundy give way to the broad Rhone valley, with the first Provençal light and limestone hills appearing before Avignon. Seat reservations are compulsory on TGV INOUI, so each ticket is tied to a specific train and seat; TER segments on connecting itineraries may not include assigned seating. Avignon TGV is outside the medieval walls, and travelers going to the old town can use the short rail shuttle or local transport to Avignon Centre.

The Dijon to Avignon train is city-center based at Dijon Ville and uses Avignon TGV with a short onward link to the old town. Buses between Burgundy and Provence usually take most of the day and may require a change in Lyon, making them slower than even a one-change rail itinerary. Flying is not practical for this city pair because neither end has a major airport connection matching the direct rail corridor; air travel normally means surface transfers to Lyon, Paris, or Marseille. Electric TGV travel also has a lower carbon footprint than driving or flying over this corridor.

Plus, it’s a greener choice, reducing your carbon footprint
