Relatively narrow forest path, a bit winding, with a nice steep section (very short).

Pleasant single-track forest trail, relatively technical but where you can pick up a bit of speed, which winds towards the edge of the woods between Piépape and Chassigny.

This powder magazine was built starting in 1842, at the same time as the Langres Citadel. Buried beneath an embankment, it features a 7-meter-high storage chamber containing the barrels of black powder, as well as a surrounding ventilation gallery. Between the two are vents and lighting niches (torches were placed here, separated from the chamber by a glass pane to prevent the powder from igniting). Unfortunately, the building is only open to visitors very occasionally (during Heritage Days, for example).

Forest trail that ends in a real single trail, in the woods overlooking the Séminaire farm. It is flat and not too technical, but fun.

This kind of dry stone pyramid, to the top of which one can climb by a spiral path, is quite common in the Langres region (the most famous Escargots are undoubtedly those of Cohons). They are in fact monumental ornaments, popular for decorating the English gardens of local notables in the 19th century.

This monkey track goes down the hillside, winding between the trees. It is relatively technical and really fun!

Village located at the gates of Langres. Old Saint-Geosmes is very pretty, with its church, its farms, its fountain and its views over the Bonnelle valley.
