Étang de Réchicourt walks
Walking on water at the Réchicourt-le-Château lake
The Réchicourt-le-Château Lake occupies a rather unusual position. The Marne-Rhine Canal has crossed it since 1965. In fact, it was decided at that time to build the “Grand Écluse”, which made it possible to bypass nearly six locks on the old canal. As a result, a section of the route is a path flanked on either side by part of the lake. Another major attraction is the Grand Écluse itself, which features numerous facilities for tourists.
The castles of Hellocourt and Romécourt by the ponds
The footwear manufacturer Thomas Bata founded Bataville in 1931 (the factory closed in 2001). This is the rather unusual starting point for this route. It is an attraction in its own right. The route also invites us to discover the magnificent Hellocourt estate and Romécourt Castle. The Saulnois is a land of ponds, and our journey also takes in the two superb ponds at Laxière and Le Moulin. We also follow some very beautiful forest paths through the Bois de Chabosses.
