The country's capital, Paris, can be found about 180 kilometres to the southwest of Hirson.
You won't have to be stuck inside a car all day to see some nature around these parts. Just 50 kilometres out of Hirson, Roc de la Tour is an excellent place to sit back and relax. Even more tranquil surrounds are waiting for you at Val Joly Lake, 20 kilometres away.
If you want to do a little exploring, add a jaunt to Anor to your plan. This place is 6 kilometres to the north and is home to the La Roseraie Pourpre and Momignies Town Hall. After some more ideas? Origny-en-Thierache is 9 kilometres to the southwest of Hirson and is proud to offer the Museum of Thierache and Pays de Thierache Tourism Office.
Want to visit the Espace Chimay, Le Chateau des Princes de Chimay and Aquascope? Make tracks to Bourlers, 19 kilometres to the northeast, and set up camp. These sights, as well as Château de Chimay and Abbaye de Scourmont, are all close.
Your eyes shouldn't have all the fun while visiting Aisne. Give your taste buds a little loving too by sampling some of the local food and drink. After all, you haven't truly experienced a destination until you've tasted its flavours.
While Hirson features no short supply of delicious foods, you shouldn't leave without tasting flamique a porions (leek tart) and tart au maroilles (cheese tart). Considered regional specialties, you'll need to stick them on your must-eat list if you really want to get a taste of this destination.
Learning how to say even just a couple of expressions in the local language will make your time in the Aisne region that little bit less challenging. 'Excusez-moi !' may be very handy. It's how you say 'excuse me'. 'Je ne comprends pas' ('I don't understand') is another one you may need.
There's bound to be a party atmosphere in the air around the 14th of July. The locals will be making preparations for Bastille Day, a day of national celebrations.
Before you pack up your belongings and wave "À plus tard", why not spend the last of your holiday allowance and buy yourself some mementos of Hirson?
Ready to fly back home? Pack up your bags, set your alarm and map a route to Brussels South Charleroi Airport (CRL). It's about 60 kilometres to the northeast.
