The village, the deer park and the Belle Balade in Châteauvillain
This circuit cleverly combines the three walks around Chateauvillain: the Castle Park (which includes the Deer Park), the Belle Balade and its original sculptures carved into the forest, and a visit to the town of Chateauvillain, notably the Fortifications Trail. A rich and varied walk with no difficulties.
Colombey-les-Deux-Églises and the Forest of Clairvaux
A mixed and challenging route, mainly through woodland and passing by sites of both local and national historical significance!
Loop in the Corgebin National Forest
Set off on a loop in the heart of the vast Corgebin State Forest, a stone's throw from Chaumont. Covering an area of 1,100 hectares, this forest became state property in 1789. Located in Haute-Marne, it is the closest state forest to the town of Chaumont, the department's prefecture. It is managed by the ONF (French National Forestry Office) for the sustainable production of quality wood, environmental protection and public access, while also allowing hunting in winter. It is very popular with the public, who come here to enjoy the peace and quiet and get in touch with nature on the outskirts of the town. It is a limestone plateau forest, consisting of beech-based deciduous stands. The landscapes are varied, ranging from coppice with standards to high forest. A nature trail starting at the Muguet visitor centre allows visitors to familiarise themselves with the main species present.
Le Sarronvau
A lovely, varied walk through vineyards, forests, plains, valleys and plateaus, from Buchey to Buchey via Harricourt and Biernes. There are some steep climbs that lead to beautiful viewpoints.
Fond du Pimeux via the Croix Bleue
Bergères is a charming wine-growing commune in the Côte des Bar. This route offers picturesque landscapes of the Côte des Bar through valleys, hillsides, vineyards, fields, moors and forests.

A circular route starting from Recey-sur-Ource that passes through woods and fields, via Gurgy-le-Château, the outskirts of Petit Saint-Broing, and also the former Chartreuse de Lugny. A hike requiring a good sense of direction as well as keen observation when you need to follow, for short stretches, a route not marked on the IGN map and when you need to cross six fords at the best possible spot, depending on the water level at the time of year.
Valley, cliffs and Lake La Mouche from Perrancey-les-Vieux-Moulins
The walk is mainly through woodland, but with a few passages through farmland or pastures to vary the landscape. It visits four pleasant villages with churches and refreshing fountains, as well as several picnic areas. It offers views of Lac de la Mouche and winds its way along the foot of cliffs, some of which are jagged, such as along the "ecological trail" (from (15) to (16)).If you find the walk a little long, you can shorten it to about 15 km by cutting from (8) to (17).
Route d'Auberive via the Chalmessin Reserve
A fairly wild route, mainly through woodland, where it is not uncommon to spot roe deer from the Auberive Forest (future national park).
