Walk in Goyet
Set off to explore the lower Samson.
Starting from the Moulin de Villenval, the walk climbs past an old quarry towards Thon, then reaches the Château-Ferme de Thon through the countryside, passing by the place known as 'au Trou Perdu'.
At the Notre-Dame de Bon Secours Chapel, the route turns towards Goyet: castle, Saint-Antoine centre and artwork at the bottom of the park.
After a steep climb, the walk crosses the Bois Wiame before returning to the starting point.
