Continuing on from the "leaning bell tower" route, this route takes you even further north, towards the small villages of Solrézis. This journey requires a great deal of determination, even though the return journey is easier, as it is mostly along the Avesnois Greenway, a route reserved for soft mobility and part of a vast network of cycle routes. You are on EuroVelo 3, known as the Scandibérique, which links Trondheim in Norway to Santiago de Compostela in Spain.

Departure from Eppe-Sauvage (Nord)
An ideal route for exploring the peaceful, unspoilt countryside. The path winds its way through fields and along small roads. Numerous oratories dot the landscape. Each chapel or oratory has its own characteristics and history. In the distance, you can see the curious leaning bell tower of the church of Solre-le-Château. Legend has it that a young maiden on her wedding day caused the impertinent bell tower to lean. The route follows the old railway line, which has been converted into a gentle path for easy cycling.
