Located on the border of the departments of Meurthe-et-Moselle and Meuse, the ponds of the Forêt de la Reine extend over 5,000 hectares and are home to more than 10 natural forest ponds. You can walk the paths that connect the ponds, such as the Rangéval pond, the Mosée pond, the Romé pond and the Boucq pond, which has a remarkable reed bed. You will also be able to admire the fauna that inhabits this Natura 2000 site, such as the marsh harrier, the collared flycatcher, the great crested newt and the lark. Along the way, you will discover the legends and stories that surround this forest which owes its name to Queen Brunehaut, a 7th century sovereign who met a tragic fate. The ponds of the Forêt de la Reine are an ideal destination for hikers who love nature and culture.
