The most beautiful natural sites to discover Aube

Claude-Joseph Vernet (1764) will illustrate this view of Nogent-sur-Seine with the church Saint-Laurent, the fishermen holding their nets, and a young girl wearing his clothes in the landscape. Olive Island, on the look of Saint-Louis Island, derives its reputation from its presence in the sentimental education of Flaubert, and its name of the doctor emeritus, mayor in 1884, who donated it to the city in the exchange of the graves of his family. It was then called Collet Island or Île des Grands Locks, with as a sine qua non the absence of commerce, sale, cabin cabin… Today as yesterday, this nature is the ideal place for a romantic and romantic walk, especially as the setting up of a mobile bridge. The alleys of the park were traced and gravel, and the island as a whole, with three hectares, was remodeled thanks to a pruning of trees. An arboretum welcomes you and accompanies you with twenty panels that describe the different local species.

This natural site in the near outskirts of the city is the opportunity for families to relax by playing adventurers, without risk, because the site is well marked, with various routes more or less disgraded. The site was once the site of Montaigu Castle, now disappeared. The route of Compostelle between Troyes and Auxerre also borrowed the path of the castle. Here, children are now taking pleasure in arbating the steep trails, picking up strands through wood, asking themselves in the openings… The most despicable will go out to ATV, with a possible departure from the ancient church of Laines-aux-Bois and a loop by Souligny. The place is perfect for picnics and ample enough to multiply walks but the evening comes, it is much less popular, and very isolated…

Neuville-sur-Valve, St-Benoit-sur-Valve… The Valve waters this whole region before drinking the Parisians. She takes her source here, under St. Alban Church, at Mount Pimont. Go down 50 m and cross the national that gives such a dull and so sad appearance in the village. Don't trust appearances, bend behind the bus bus… You're rewarded: below is a beautiful covered th-century wash wash, with a wooden area, which is well restored and leaves its vats in the first waters of the nascent creek. With a picnic, you will be installed on this green rest area along which the first waves of the watercourse wind.

Located in the Domaine Saint-Victor, 3 km from Soulaines towards Brienne-le-Château, this association offers numerous animations for schools and groups (on reservation). Forest visits, ponds tours, hiking, geology discovery, amphibian migration observation… Saint Victor's estate also houses a park to deer, moist meadows and a wooded area to discover butterflies, wetlands, forests, gardens............................…. water bodies and diagnostics on natural spaces.

It is a place that is often ignored and even more function. The Mussy-sur-Seine cooler consists of a spectacular stone cylinder of 10 m deep and about 7 m in diameter. From the outside, difficult to get a clear idea of the thing. This cooler was in some way the fridge of Langres bishops when they stayed in Mussy during the summer. It is in an excellent state of conservation, rare in France, and is visible upon request at the tourist office.

If we know the Faux de Verzy in the Marne, we know less about this tree which is more than 800 years old. There are few in France. It was a junction of three fields, hence its name. It is 5 metres wide and it is even said that some people hid there during the Second World War. A superb site that gives a good excuse for a walk.

This artificial lake, like those of the Orient and the Temple, offers this undeniable asset to be warm, with a sandy beach, and wild, which makes it one of the most beautiful. A picnic design completes the whole. Motonautism is also at the heart of it, it is even the largest lake in Europe for this sport but from May 1 you can also start fishing in pike. The smaller than that of the Dawn, it offers a leisure base and a port of 240 seats. 200 locations are reserved for vehicles, with rings for trailers. Everything is thought of here for holidaymakers: Sumptuous, bars, bakeries and small rental accommodation in order to relax away from the city, with all the comfort. The fishermen will also find their happiness and the Vélovoie offers access to the other lakes while cycling. Those who enjoy the jet will be equally satisfied. Indeed, if the speed is limited to 60 km/h on the whole site, an unlimited circuit allows to allow each sensation.
