Need a holiday in the open air? Fans of green stays? Then pack your bags for Giffaumont Champaubert, the perfect holiday destination to discover all the riches of Champagne.
A holiday resort located on the shores of Lake Der, Europe's largest artificial lake, Giffaumont Champaubert invites you to relax and escape in a preserved and green natural setting. A huge open-air playground, Lac du Der conquers the hearts of young and old every year thanks to its beauty, but also because of its many sports facilities for all. During this stay, you will be able to discover the joys of sailing, but also to laze on the lake's 6 equipped beaches, take boat rides, water skiing, outboard, canoeing, catamaran, pedal boat, wakeboard or even the towed buoy, a fun activity that will delight the whole family. Isn't water sports your cup of tea? Don't panic: with 77 kilometres of shoreline, there are many rollerblading and mountain bike trails around the lake. You can also opt for a ride on a mini-train, a game of mini-golf, a sports session on the treetop course or a fun day at Toon's Land Park. The lake is also well known to fishermen who come in large numbers to fish for tench, carp, pike, perch and roach. For incomparable panoramic views of the lake and its surroundings, we advise you to fly over the lake in ULM, by plane or by paraglider for the more adventurous! Those who would like to enjoy beautiful views without the thrills will then have to go to the Giffaumont Champaubert water tower, an observatory well known for its breathtaking view of the lake.
To discover all the charms of the commune, we recommend you to take the "Balade Fleurie", a route through Giffaumont that will allow you to contemplate all the splendours of local architecture, from the typical half-timbered houses of Champagne to its washhouses, without forgetting its flowered residences. Also pass through the botanical park, stop at the Grange aux Abeilles museum, then venture into the Der forest. Moreover, "Der" in Celtic means "oak", which is why oak is king in the Giffaumont Champaubert region. Watered by the Droye, the village will win the hearts of hikers, water sports enthusiasts and holidaymakers looking for peace and quiet. With the étang des Landres, the étang du Grand Coulon and the étang de la Forêt, the commune multiplies the invitations to discover its many faces and shores, thanks to a multitude of foot, horse and bicycle paths, walking through its landscapes. In all, more than 250 kilometres of marked trails, 21 kilometres of equestrian routes and 100 kilometres of greenways criss-cross the Der region, for fun, sports or relaxing walks, as you wish.
Finally, if Giffaumont is a delight for holidaymakers, it is also a real paradise for birds, as well as for ornithology fans. A preserved and wild site, Lac du Der is home to 45 varieties of dragonflies, 20 different types of amphibians and 40 species of mammals for more than 200 species of birds, most of which are very rare and protected. We recommend that you do not forget your camera to capture the beauty and uniqueness of these animals!
