Discover Chavelot: Cycling, the Moselle and Leisure

Chavelot offers several distinct starting points for planning your trip: a long mountain biking circuit rated very difficult, the Moselle with a designated fishing section, the V50 Voie Bleue and leisure activities in town. The Église Saint-Evre also gives your stay a historical dimension. If you are looking for a hotel in Chavelot, first consider which of these activities are important to your trip.

Cycling and walks

Mountain biking circuit no. 79 is 98 kilometres long and rated very difficult. The start and finish are at the car park of the Mairie in Chavelot, so you return to your starting point. Its length and difficulty rating provide concrete details to help you decide. You can plan the loop as a challenging ride in its own right; its rating clearly indicates the nature of the route.

Another option is the V50 Voie Bleue near Chavelot. It is used mainly by cyclists, walkers and anglers. The two options therefore differ in what they emphasise: the mountain biking circuit has a stated length and difficulty, while the V50 is described by its main user groups. This can help you decide whether you are looking for a cycling loop explicitly rated very difficult or a route used for several different activities. Check the current conditions on the V50 locally.

Fishing on the Moselle

On the Moselle in Chavelot, fishing is permitted from the left bank in the section bounded upstream by the RN 57 expressway bridge and downstream by the Chavelot weir at Laubée Blanche. The bank and both boundaries are part of the rules governing this fishing area. Before fishing, check the applicable permits and regulations, as they may change.

A historical landmark

The present-day Église Saint-Evre dates from 1844 and stands on the site of an older church. Two periods of time therefore meet at this location: the construction date of the present church and the site's earlier use. For travellers interested in local history, its particular significance lies in precisely this connection. The church thus provides a distinct historical feature alongside the sporting and leisure activities that also characterise Chavelot.

Leisure at Games Park 88

Games Park 88 in Chavelot is a 1,800-square-metre leisure facility with food available on site. Activities include laser tag, bowling, Jorkyball, Racing Bug, glow-in-the-dark mini golf, a quiz room, fun climbing, karaoke booths and an arcade zone. The range spans physical activities and games of skill as well as quizzes, music and arcade games. These different formats give you a variety of options for planning your leisure time, rather than limiting your visit to a single activity. The size of the facility and the food available on site are further concrete features of what's on offer.
