Tips from the Community
That was a highlight for us! We arrived and asked if there was a way to charge our e-bikes. The strong headwind consumed a lot of power. The lady of the house let us use the sockets in her office as a matter of course, simply unplugging her own devices. Then she invited us to a champagne tasting. That was an experience - we received super pleasant and delicious champagne for tasting! Since I was prepared for transporting food, I bought 2 bottles and put them in our cool bags. We will come back - definitely!

The wine press shows the work of years long gone - the champagne corks on the road are skillfully avoided by sober drivers.

Étoges - a special place! Also special is this old wash place. From the right side there is a door to get inside. The spring bubbles uninterruptedly!
