プイヨンのおすすめツーリングルート

While staying on the asphalt, you can cover more than 24 km. From the St. Brice Courcelles side, you can go up to La Neuvillette, then to Courcy, it's an unpaved road (passable but not for road bikes). After Courcy, there's asphalt up to Berry au Ferry (this allows you to discover the Sapigneul Owl, about 150 m on dirt road). On the other side, after Sillery, you can continue to Beaumont (asphalt). Then, on a dirt road passable by mountain bike, you can go to the Billy Arch, where the canal passes through a tunnel.

The abbey served as the guardian of the Holy Ampulla (Sainte Ampoule) used in the coronation ceremonies of French kings, and Reims was known as Durocortorum when it served as the capital of the Roman province of Belgica.

The Saint-Remi Museum in Reims is housed in a former Benedictine abbey that was classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1991 and officially became a museum in 1978. The museum covers the period from Prehistory to the Renaissance (around 1530) and features regional archaeology collections, classical antiquities, and an extensive military history section

Beautiful cycle path along the water.

Inaugurated in 1996, on the occasion of the 15th centenary of the baptism of Clovis by Saint Remi and the visit of Pope John Paul II to Reims, this imposing statue offered by the Roederer champagne house was created by the Dutch artist Daphné du Barry.

At this point, the Coulée Verte crosses the railway viaduct near Boulevard Roederer. A clever cycle channel along the stairs makes it possible to guide your bike up or down smoothly. No mechanical lift, but a handy passage that connects the canal path with the higher part of the city and the station of Reims. Ideal for those who cycle in or out of the city via the green lung of Reims.

Pouillon is a former Gallo-Roman village that once served as a fortified camp along a Roman road between Bordeaux and Pamplona. In the centre you will find traditional houses, a village square and the impressive Église Saint-Martin, an 11th-century Romanesque church with Gothic features, colourful stained glass windows and a marble altar. The Bénarrucq chapel, a former stop for pilgrims on their way to Santiago de Compostela, is nearby and adds to the historic character of the village.

Villers-Franqueux was badly hit during the First World War. In 1915, the village was almost completely destroyed by artillery bombardments. Reconstruction only began after the war, during which the current village image largely emerged. The war memorial and the town hall are reminders of this dramatic period in the village's history. The town hall dates from the 1920s and has remained virtually unchanged in terms of architecture since then. It is a fine example of the reconstruction architecture of the interwar period, with a sober but elegant style that is typical of that period.
