Along the Voie Verte, you glide into Monthermé, a village that still carries its history in its facades. For centuries, the Meuse was a workplace here: log drivers, ironworks, and small industries set the rhythm. Today, you mainly see the quiet echo of that – natural stone houses on the slope, wide staircases that workers once climbed up and down daily, and a village center that has formed around the river.

Along the Voie Verte, you glide into Monthermé, a village that still carries its history in its facades. The Meuse was a workplace here for centuries: wood rafters, forges, and small industries set the rhythm. Today, you mainly see the quiet echo of that — natural stone houses against the slope, wide stairs that workers once climbed up and down daily, and a village center that has formed around the river.

Sluice no. 44 – Joigny‑sur‑Meuse A quiet Freycinet lock in the bend of the Meuse valley, just outside Joigny‑sur‑Meuse. The lock is situated between high Ardennes slopes and offers a beautiful moment to see the canal and the river running parallel. The old lock keeper's house and the open view of the valley make this a small but atmospheric stop on the Charleville‑Mézières – Givet route.
