Barge holidays from Pont-à-Bar
and Dinant/Anseremme bases
The
word Ardennes means in Celtic "dense forest". Cruising
these waterways from our base at Pont-à-Bar
you can travel through the gorges of the River Meuse to Charleville-Mezieres
and picturesque villages such as Fumay
and north to the Belgian border and our base at Dinant/Anseremmes.
Home of wild boar, roe-deer and some of France's rarest birds,
the Ardennes forests shelter rarities as
orchids and the fly-catching sundew. It is an area of crags
and forests, pretty villages and handsome chateaux.
Alternatively,
from Pont-à-Bar
cruise south to Verdun and towards Toul
or south west along the Canal des Ardennes towards Champagne
country.
