Saxon-Sion walks

This superb route offers an exceptional view of the Saintois and Xaintois regions from the Monument Barrès, as well as beautiful panoramas throughout the route, which is exclusively on footpaths. It also allows you to discover the very pretty medieval village of Vaudémont and its ramparts.

The inspiring hill is rich in history and geology and is a geographical landmark in this area known as the Saintois.

A pleasant walk around the Métay and the Favières leisure centre, with magnificent scenery.

A hilly circuit where you can enjoy the Saintois countryside and the nearby Madon, with breathtaking views of the Château d'Haroué (9) and the hill of Sion.

Follow in the footsteps of Victor Hugo's ancestors on a beautiful trail offering magnificent views in a varied landscape of pastures, crops and forests.This route has little shade, so take care in hot weather.

Starting from Mirecourt, this loop is an enjoyable way to discover the heritage and countryside of the Vosges. The route passes through varied landscapes: village lanes, hedged paths, open fields and rivers crossed by charming wooden footbridges. Along the way, you will reach the village of Poussay and then Mazirot. Between nature and heritage, this accessible hike offers beautiful views and a peaceful atmosphere, ideal for a half-day outing.

Hike between the wild Moselle, ponds and the Canal de l'Est (southern branch). A very pleasant route in spring or summer. Beautiful views of the wild Moselle and the canal.

Pleasant walk along the canal on the way there and back around the ponds.

Starting from Allain, descend into a small valley in the heart of the forest, isolated from the noise of everyday life, where you can see wild boar piglets. Continue along the valley to a magnificent large oak tree and the Chahalot resurgence, which during high water periods bubbles with clear water from the Aroffe before flowing into the Bouvade. Return via a path lined with periwinkles and pass by a mirabelle plum orchard where you can see deer feasting.

A hike around the village of Richardménil, passing through the Bois Leleau, the Bois Impérial, the Tombouctou plateau with a view of Ludres and Nancy, a visit to the Saint Georges Church before returning via the Canal des Vosges.

A getaway from the centre of Richardménil to its neighbouring towns: Méréville, Messein, Ludres and Fléville. This almost triangular route follows or runs alongside the old freight routes: the Canal de l'Est, now the Canal des Vosges, the Canal de Jonction and the old railway lines serving the Ludres-Fléville industrial zone. If you cross this industrial zone during the week, you will understand why barges and trains no longer run in the area... Route updated in January 2026.

A pleasant walk starting from Ochey, mostly through the woods, allowing you to discover a very pleasant spot, the Fontaine d'Ochey, a pretty turquoise blue resurgence, pouring out a good volume of water at this time of year (early April), but also worth seeing at other times.

The Madon and its tributaries are waterways that are important to preserve and maintain, both to limit flooding and for the environment, as they are sources of biodiversity and are responsible for the landscapes you will pass through on this walk.

To complete the triptych covering the Ludres plateau (see also Ludres-Houdemont and Ludres-Messein), this circular route mainly covers the commune of Chavigny and takes in the three highlights of the plateau: Camp Leuque, traces of mining activity and a beautiful view of the Vosges mountains.

Circular starting from Ludres, crossing the old village, with panoramic views of the Moselle valley above Messein and crossing the Cité d'Affrique (Camp Leuque). A gentle section on the plateau but also some steep passages. Route designed to accumulate elevation gain (well suited to Nordic walking) but with possible detours. Route modified at the end of 2025 to take into account previously issued opinions.

A very varied route for those who enjoy long hikes or training in the mountains or on trails. Hikers will appreciate the views, while trail runners will enjoy the alternation between flat sections and steep slopes. The route is designed to achieve a relatively high elevation gain/length ratio for this region. There are numerous shortcuts available if needed.Updated in December 2025.

Many fruit trees to see along the way. Departure from Coyviller, then visit Manoncourt-en-Vermois, the Charles Sonnoni memorial and return to Coyviller.

A route combining a visit to Fléville-devant-Nancy with its Renaissance castle and the rolling landscapes of the Vermois; it follows some sections used in the distant past (a Gallo-Roman road) or more recently (harnessed horses at the beginning of the 20th century). Route updated in January 2026.

A varied hike through woods, meadows and valleys. Please note: the section of the route from point (10) is currently impassable due to fallen trees along the stream. To return to the starting point, head towards Circourt by following the road (D39) to the right, then turn left into Rue de la Chapelle, which passes in front of the church, and continue straight on along the road that extends from it to join the D39a. Cross it to find the path you took at the start and follow it to the left to return to the car park.
