La Ferté Sous Jouarre

La Ferté sous Jouarre was built on 2 banks of the Marne and is located at the confluence of the Marne and small Morin. Its river halt, located in full centre town, will make you discover the natural space of the Marne sides and its undulating and timbered landscapes will allow you to make beautiful hiking.
The proximity with Paris (approximately 60km) will enable you to discover the capital. The Champenois vine growers will make you visit their vineyards and taste their products.

  • To see : Eurodisney, the town hall, the park of the fountain to the pigeons, the bandstand, and the bank with the grinding stones.
