Departure from Gorze (Moselle)
A walk offering views of Gorze from various angles, including Gorzia, the statue of the Virgin of Saint-Blin, the cemetery, the Rocher de la Pucelle, Saint-Clément Chapel, the Altar of the Lepers, and Saint-Étienne Collegiate Church.
From the 1st century onwards, the springs of Gorze were harnessed by the Romans to supply Divodorum (now Metz) with water via an underground conduit and an aqueduct (one of the longest in Europe). Most of Gorze’s springs still supply the town.

Departure from Lorry-lès-Metz (Moselle)
The V50 cycle route (Luxembourg - Lyon) crosses the Messine conurbation, running alongside the Moselle from La Maxe to Augny. Like the author, who set off from Lorry-lès-Metz, it is easy to join the route and follow it to Blénod-lès-Pont-à-Mousson, between ponds and wetlands, riding mostly on dedicated cycle paths. Then you cross "Little Lorraine Switzerland" on quiet roads to rejoin the Moselle at Liverdun, nestled in one of its beautiful meanders. Following the river along the V533 greenway, you soon come into view of Toul Cathedral, the first stop on the journey.
