Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours in Châtenois
Club Vosgien route where you will see crosses and calvaries, an altarpiece, a chapel, a church and an ancient Roman road, through the shimmering countryside and deciduous woods.
From Neufchâteau station to the Citadel of Langres (Navarre campsite)
This stage follows the southern part of the Eurovélo 19 "La Meuse à vélo" route (1,050 km from Langres to Rotterdam). From Neufchâteau, we follow the meandering Mouzon, a tributary of the Meuse. We then leave it behind, taking less travelled but more direct roads that avoid the meanders of the Meuse. We rejoin the EV19 just before the "Source de la Meuse" site, on the Langres plateau crossed by three watersheds. With the plateau reaching a height of 450 m, the gradients are not significant, but on arrival, you will need to make a little effort to climb the promontory on which the Citadel of Langres is perched. Your reward: a splendid view at dusk!

Saprée Vadrouille in the land of Joan of Arc in Domrémy-la-Pucelle
With the Jubilee Year of Hope, since November 2024, our Catholic Church in the Vosges has developed a proposal: "Saprée Vadrouille, travel journal for paths of hope", with three issues per year focusing on liturgical times and the saints of the Vosges.Several itineraries are proposed in the Vosges as local pilgrimages and paths of hope. This is an opportunity to rediscover our region and our local saints throughout the Vosges department. Each itinerary can be done independently of the others, at any time of year. "Dans le pays de Jeanne" (In the Land of Joan) is the itinerary proposed in the second issue of "Saprée Vadrouille", which you can discover here.
