LA VOIE BLEUE CYCLE ROUTE - THIONVILLE - METZ à THIONVILLE

Guillaume Robert-Famy Uckange, parc du haut-fourneau U4

In Thionville, the Voie Bleue (Blue Way) escapes from this defensive city with its two lock bridges, true masterpieces of military engineering. The itinerary then reveals a more industrial heritage by following the port of Illange, the first river port for metallurgical products, then the former U4 blast furnace, one of the rare monuments of the 20th century steel industry transformed into a place of culture and heritage. On arriving in Metz, the cycle route passes through pleasant ponds and wetlands. Before resuming your cycling trip, take the time to wander through the historic city centre of Metz. The Saint-Etienne cathedral and the Centre Pompidou-Metz are two must-sees in the Lorraine capital.
