« The Meuse bicycle tour »,a tourism project
on a European scaleIn June 2012, the partner countries (the Netherlands, Belgium andFrance including the Meuse département and the Lorraine CRT(Regional Tourism Committee)) expressed their desire to createan international cycle touring circuit, “La Meuse à Vélo” coveringa distance of more than 900 km, starting from the source of theMeuse on the Langres plateau in Haute Marne and going down toits delta where it comes out into the North Sea, with a commonidentity along its whole route.
A real challenge for the development of tourism in Meuse
The Meuse département, represented by the CDT (DépartementalTourism Committee) and the Highways Department, has beendeeply involved in this major project and has worked on puttingit in place in Meuse, taking cycling routes and shared roads, andshortly the Voies Vertes greenways.
The route proposed here is the section going through the Meusedépartement.
These are Stages 4 to 10, departing from Neufchateau (Vosges) andgoing to Sedan (Ardennes):
• Stage 4 : Neufchâteau > Vaucouleurs• Stage 5 : Vaucouleurs > Commercy• Stage 6 : Commercy > Saint-Mihiel• Stage 7 : Saint-Mihiel > Verdun• Stage 8 : Verdun > Dun-sur-Meuse• Stage 9 : Dun-sur-Meuse > Stenay• Stage 10 : Stenay > Sedan
Eventually, touring cyclists will be able to make the most of areal offering all along this route in terms of identified services– toilets and waterpoints, tourist information – and of attractivereception conditions at the tourist sites (bicycle racks, etc.),restaurants and accommodation.
To date CDT Meuse has identified some accommodations inthe Meuse Valley that are close to the route and that meet thecriteria required for receiving touring cyclists.
You will take a route through the countryside over 207 km, thatyou will share with motor vehicles.
So take care!
