The Iges peninsula, formed by a circular bend in the Meuse downstream from Sedan, has always been a crossing point. A secondary Roman road, linking the two major routes from Reims to Cologne and from Reims to Trier, passed through Iges and crossed the Meuse via a paved ford. Following the surrender of 1870, 80,000 French soldiers were crammed onto the peninsula in appalling conditions before being transferred to Germany, hence the name ‘Camp de la Misère’ (Camp of Misery) given to the peninsula.

This forest route follows a variety of paths, including many sections of the Pays Sedanais mountain bike routes and various forest trails in Villers Cernay, Francheval and Pouru-aux-Bois.The elevation changes are not excessive and the numerous streams that line the route add a special charm to this route.
