The Meuse Valley

Discover one of France's most beautiful rivers! With authentic towns and villages, riverside cliffs offering superb views, and relaxing river cruises, the French Meuse Valley has everything you could dream about in a holiday destination.

Wild and enchanting, you can experience the greatest winding bends of the Meuse Valley either on or by the water. Don’t forget to take a couple of detours to ascend some of the rocky overhangs to enjoy incredible panoramic landscapes. The Grands Ducs cliffs at Joigny, the famous “Roche à Sept Heures” and “Roches aux Sept Villas” rocks or the Ermitage cliff at Bogny with its statue overlooking the river, are landmarks you’ll never forget, as is the “Dames de Meuse” massif at Laifour, made up of three imposing hills.

If you would rather take to the water, Hotel Le Val Saint Hilaire is right by the embarkation point for Croisières Ardennaises. You can also sample the calm of the Meuse on special excursions devoted to such themes as culture, romance, gastronomy or simply relaxation in the fresh air. Our team are on hand to help you if you wish.
