モンス＝エン＝ラオノワのおすすめツーリングルート

We were looking forward to cycling along the canal, but that's not possible for now; you have to take a small detour, as Komoot shows the canal's side trails, but there are no bike paths. The bridge, however, with its turquoise blue color, made us happy. These steel bridges are obviously much more durable than our concrete bridges.

We thought the sign prohibited vehicles. But the path ends at Lock 6—there's no access path to the canal. The path is a dead end.

superb hike

little corner of peace

Last part of the path to the stone fort, quite rolling

The Étang des Moines lake is one of the four ponds that were dug by the monks of Liessies Abbey at the end of the 17th century. Covering an area of approximately 20 hectares, it is home to various species of fish, such as carp, pike, perch, roach and tench. The lake is also a haven for wildlife, particularly birds, such as herons, ducks, coots and kingfishers. You can appreciate the tranquility and beauty of the lake from different viewpoints, such as the wooden bridge or the picnic area.

An Art Deco church, from where you can also observe a magnificent panorama of the Monts du Laonnois.
