ALL ABOARD SHIPMATE!

GUENTRANGE CIRCUIT

Winemakers’ houses will start to appear along your path. Small or large wine estates recall the history of this emblematic district of Thionville. The oldest one, in dazzling Jaumont stone, dates from the 16th century and sits alongside its younger 21st century neighbours with a more geometrical architecture. At the summit, the grand finale! Sheltered by the ancient press the view starts to clear and offers a stunning panorama over the Moselle valley.

STROLL AROUND THE OLD WINEMAKING VILLAGE

LAKES CIRCUIT

From the car park on the banks of the Moselle, this circuit offers an easy half-day family walk.
The route offers two options. We recommend opting for the path that passes among the lakes. And why not stop off for a picnic.
You will be able to devote the rest of your day to discovering the Château de la Grange which lies on the route.
But before you reach it, stop for a look at the old Saint-François brewery which dates back to 1722.

ENJOY A MOMENT OF PEACE AND QUIET

GET ON YOUR BIKE

LA CANNER PARK

Offering a natural haven at the Buding Oil Mill , La Canner Park offers a host of possibilities for walks or bicycle rides and is perfect for nature activities. Frogs of all sorts, toads, heron, great spotted woodpeckers, chaffinches, blackbirds and more have taken over the site. When the weather is fine, delicate dragonflies also enjoy this protected environment for their stunning acrobatic displays. In the autumn, the site sports magnificent colours and it is possible to see certain birds on their way to more clement climates. When the winter comes and it snows it becomes a wonderful playground for whoever wants to follow the tracks left by small animals.

NATURE IS YOURS TO ENJOY!

STANDING STONES
OF EUROPE

On the French-German border, in the village of Launstroff stand some strange twisted sculptures. With geometric shapes, often built in several pieces, they recall traditional Celtic standing stones but are proud to proclaim their differences. Pyramids or stylised faces, smooth or rough, sculpted or not, the itinerary offers a collection of works, each of which is more original than the last. Depending on the season, the surrounding fields will accompany you with their vivid seasonal colours.
