Departure from Sarralbe (Moselle)
Circular route on varied terrain (forest, country lanes, canal bank) offering the chance to discover:
- a forest ranger’s house built of pink sandstone, with its arboretum and observation point,
- bunkers dating from the Second World War with views across the whole of the Albe valley,
- a 10th-century chapel and a military cemetery,
- a bridge over the coal-mining canal, built before 1867.
The return leg of the circular route follows the canal.
