Chaumont Car Rental

Enterprise Car Rental Locations in Chaumont

Chaumont received its first settlers in the 10th century, and spread out with the progression of history. It has an era to serve every interest, from turreted 13th-century homes to 16th-century mansions. It even has a castle and feudal keep, which looks out over the Suize Valley. As is the case with most towns in this part of France, its charm lies in its dark medieval past, which is set against a vista green and leafy enough for any fairy tale. You'll find the junction of the Seine, Aube and Meuse here, but it's better known for its "bald" mountain, which was once used as a strategic military point. The chapel of the Jesuits was built in 1640 and houses a famous Claude Collignon altarpiece. You will find your Enterprise Rent-A-Car branch a short way from the D619

France's graphic design centre is in Chaumont, so a collection of posters and the like are on show.

Chaumont is a fishing destination that runs boat trips between April and October. It also has cycling, hiking and horseback tours.

Parking and Traffic Information in Chaumont

France has the second-biggest highway network in the world, with massive superhighways called autoroutes. You may lease a car if you're 18 or older, but to rent, you must be over 21. Your EU driver's license is valid, but officials may check its validity. You'll need to carry a special pack of safety gear, including a warning triangle, breathalyser and vest. Street parking is only allowed on specified days, so keep an eye on the signs. Disabled drivers generally get to park for free, but lots are generally well priced. If you're staying longer than three months, you can apply for an International Driving Permit, which will make any encounters with authorities go a little more smoothly.
