The sand pit is a naturally formed area and not an old quarry. Its seaside looks show traces of the ocean’s presence millions of years ago. This is evidenced by the presence of a very ancient coral reef and many tiny seashells in its sand. It is a highly appreciated place. The place is protected, and it is forbidden to collect sand there.

The charming city of Hermonville is part of the nearby outer ring of Reims, and is crossed by the Champagne Tourist Route. It is part of the Massif de Saint Thierry.

Here is an unusual place! This former Formula 1 racing car circuit from the 1960s has been preserved as is. It was also used by cyclists. The Dutchman Theo Middelkamp won the road cycling world champion there on August 3, 1947. If you feel like it, come and sprint on these long asphalt straight lines. There is no longer anyone in the stands, but nothing prevents you from imagining the atmosphere then.

The Lac de Gueux park is an ideal place to take a break. The Clos du Lac restaurant and bed and breakfast is also worth a stop, as the place is calm and pleasant. You will also be served good meals.
