Hiking and walks in the Meuse in the heart of nature
The department of Meuse is located halfway between Paris and Strasbourg, in Lorraine, at the gates of Belgium and Champagne-Ardenne.
It takes its name from the majestic river that crosses it from south to north, the Meuse, a 950 km long river, passing through France, Belgium, the Netherlands before finally flowing into the North Sea.
Ideally located 1 hour by TGV from Paris or Strasbourg, 1 hour by car from Reims or Metz, and just steps from Belgium, Meuse is not the lost corner you might think. Known mainly for the battlefields of the 14-18 war, it has many other secrets to reveal.
In the north of the department, on the borders of Belgium and the Ardennes, the Sky of Meuse surprises with the exceptional preservation of its monuments such as the basilica of Avioth, the citadel of Montmédy, the beer museum of Stenay, the Ipoustéguy center of Doulcon... in the heart of an exceptional nature.
In the west of the department between Champagne and Lorraine, the Argonne is a true playground for nature lovers who will be charmed by its bucolic landscapes, exceptional know-how, and lush nature.
In the east of the department, the Woëvre plain and the Côtes de Meuse await you. From Etain, the land of Petit Collin Dolls, to the Benedictine city of Saint-Mihiel going towards the shores of Madine lake, the Côtes de Meuse will carry families and hikers along the paths of leisure activities, craftsmanship, and History.
Finally, to the south, the Meuse Valley offers visitors a natural land allied with culture and history with the Stanislas castle in Commercy and the key sites of the Joan of Arc epic in Vaucouleurs.
So, let yourself be surprised by the Meuse and its mischievous rivers that gently wind through the meadows, its river, its mirabelle plum trees playing with the rays of the sun, or even a rolling landscape shimmering with dew.
