The surrounding Lorraine valley is renowned as a beautiful, unspoilt region and you are only ten minutes from a large nature reserve, which is great to explore on foot or by rental bicycle. The lake provides some excellent fishing and sailing, there is a nine-hole golf course nearby and local stables give the opportunity to go out hacking and explore this stunning region.

The château is happy to arrange planned excursions, such as crossbow hunting, and the area has a wealth of game including wild boar. Clay pigeon shooting can also be arranged, as can wine tasting and even hot air balloon rides. Golfing excursions are very popular, and there are at least ten good courses within easy reach of the castle.
