The magnificent Orient Lake

Close to the abbey, the small forest road follows the valley and the stream, passes near the fountain dedicated to Saint Bernard, then enters the woods.

You see more and more champagne producers and vineyards along your path. It's normal. You are in the second largest champagne producing region after Reims and Epernay. The Château de Bligny estate in the village can be a good choice to learn more about this legendary drink.

On the edge of the lake and the Forêt d'Orient regional natural park, this town is at the very heart of a preserved place, combining vast forests and three reservoir lakes. The village is about a two-hour drive from Paris.

Founded in 1115 by Saint Bernard, Clairvaux Abbey became a prison in 1808. The abbey has seen centuries of history pass by. Located in the heart of humid Champagne, in Ville-sous-la-Ferté, this Cistercian complex with majestic buildings rises in the middle of an ocean of greenery.

Very beautiful Vélovoie which connects the outskirts of the Troyes conurbation to the Lacs de la Forêt d’Orient over 44km 🚴🏽‍♂️ It has two parallel paths: the Vélovoie, for cyclists and rollerbladers, with a very smooth and clean bitumen surface, and, in parallel, a gravel path, for pedestrians and horse riders 👍🏽
