When nature and history meet… Valenciennes has a resolutely green face, with shady squares and tree-lined parks offering cool havens right in the heart of the city.
Just a few streetcar stops away, landscapes shaped by mining history invite you to get away from it all. Put on your sneakers and let yourself be guided along the greenways along the Scheldt, before taking on the challenge of climbing the Chabaud-Latour slag heap. A preserved natural environment, between memory and discovery, that promises some great escapes!
