Champagne-Ardenne is a very sacred place, indeed, for the connoisseur of fine wines and beautiful countryside. The region abounds in deep forests, reflected in the clear brilliant water of lakes and streams running through schistous and lime-stone rocks, whose smooth undulating contours characterise the Champagne plain. Within this limestone strata, hundreds of miles of rock have been excavated to provide underground galleries for the housing and maturing of the wine.

Along 650 kilometers of waterways and lakes, you may relax in comfort and peace on board a house boat, bateaux-mouches or on a panoramic boat-drifting through a variety of scenes, observing migratory birds and animals who have made their habitat along the banks.

Champagne-Ardenne can also be discovered from the air by plane, helicopter or balloon. By car or in a coach, you can easily find, off the beaten tracks, numerous splendors : the basilica of l'Epine, the Reims cathedral, where the kings of France used to be crowned, the Sedan castle, the fortified city of Langres, the 16th century old houses at Troyes, the many wooden facade churches in the Champagne bocage, the Meuse Valley, the Triangle Sacré du Champagne, the great lakes, the country of spring water and so on. Sport is also catered for, including golf, horse riding, sail board, etc.
