There are many wine producers in the rural area between [[Dijon]] and [[Beaune]]. During the grape harvest ''(les vendanges)'' this area comes alive. For those participating in the harvest, looking for work there, or just wanting a rural day out in wine country, travelling between the villages on route '''D974''' is easy and the locals are friendly and curious about hitchhikers and travellers. The D974 leaves Dijon from the south and you could start hitching anywhere along the Ave. Jean Jaurès where there are a number of places to pull in/out.
You could also join the ([[A6]]) at Beaune to continue south, instead of trying to get to the péage from the centre of Dijon.
Of particular interest is the charming but somewhat bourgeois town of '''Nuits-St-Georges''': '''D974''' passes straight through the centre of this town, where there is particularly good dumpster diving.
