ARBORETUM

A ten-minute walk from the centre of Fresse sur Moselle (car park near the municipal workshops), the arboretum extends over more than four hectares at an altitude varying from 560 to 590 metres. Access is on a gentle slope on a south-facing hillside overlooking the village and the Moselle valley. Since its creation in 1992, the arboretum has been enriched with 200 varieties of trees of local European and Mediterranean species but also African, Asian and American. The quality of the soil and the good exposure of the site have favoured the adaptation of these species. Information leaflets are displayed next to the trees for the visitor who wishes to get to know them. The estate is in communal forest. Management has been entrusted to the National Forestry Office since its creation. The area is crossed by a two-kilometre fitness trail which is a delight for sports enthusiasts and walkers.
