リヴィエール＝レ＝フォッス周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ8

Building apparently 100% Romanesque and with a 100% lavatory roof. The site, at the top of a hill planted with vines, with a clear view, is enchanting. Additionally, there is an absolutely majestic oak tree in front (classified as a remarkable tree).

Idyllic gravel path alternating open passages and forest edge passages. A real treat !

This wooden cabin is part of a nature trail in the Chalmessin Nature Reserve, a protected area that is home to a remarkable tuff marsh and limestone lawn. The cabin has a unique shape, as it is built with inverted oak tree tops that form a natural frame. Next to the hut, there is a reconstruction of a pile of charcoal and panels that explain the history and work of the charcoal burners. The cabin is located in a wooded valley, where you can enjoy the sounds of nature and observe various plants and animals, such as orchids, sedges, butterflies, dragonflies and lizards.

The Fountain of the “Peute Beast” is a curious fountain, dating from the 18th century, resembling an animal with dragon features and linked to a fantastic local legend by Jean Robinet. According to legend, the fountain represents a monstrous beast which terrorized the villagers and which was defeated by a celestial knight. The fountain is located in the village square, next to the church and cemetery, and is a registered historic monument.

Take a detour every now and then to switch the scenery

A very nice way. The numerous locks and the associated houses of the smugglers are particularly worth seeing.

Opened to traffic in 1907, the canal between Champagne and Burgundy (formerly the Marne-Saône canal) extends over 224 kilometers between Vitry-le-François and Marcilly-sur-Saône. It provides the river connection between the navigable networks of the Seine and the Rhône. It required major works: fixed bridges, swing bridges, footbridges, aqueduct, but also tunnels and artificial lakes for its water supply. He requested the digging of a 4,821 meter tunnel (fourth river tunnel in France) which passes some 50 meters under the church of Balesmes as well as the construction of the 4 lakes of the Pays de Langres. The landscapes crossed as well as its calm make it one of the most beautiful canals in France.

Magnificent in winter, it must be just as beautiful in summer! The portions are in variable states, mostly tarred, and remain relatively passable.
