Park in the small car park behind the municipal administration building.
(S/E) At Chaussée de Gramptinne, turn right towards the shops on your left. After 250 m, take the path on your left between the stone house at No. 171 and the shed. Follow this path until you reach Burton Lane. Turn left and note the contrast between the old sandstone houses and the contemporary buildings.
When the road ends, continue straight ahead on the path through the woods. You are now on part of the Art Trails; note the two works of art on your left. At the end of the path, follow the street to the right and cross a small bridge over the Fonds de Gesves stream. Leave Rue Ry des Fonds on your left.
(1) In Rue Inzéculot, after about a hundred metres, take a short path on your left immediately after passing a double garage. This will take you to Rue Les Fonds, which you should follow to the left.
After passing a DIY shop, at the crossroads, go up Rue de la Chapelle on your right.
(2) 100 metres from the crossroads, don't miss the path on your right leading into a steep wood. Be careful, after only a few metres, the path splits. Follow the one on the right and continue along the back of the houses on Rue Les Fonds. At the end of this forest path, which ends with six steps, you will reach Rue des Fontaines. Follow it to the left and at the top of Rue des Fontaines, take Rue de la Chapelle on your left.
(3) Turn left onto Petite Corniche and follow it until you return to Rue de la Chapelle, which you take to the left. You will then arrive at the Chapelle du Pré d'Amite. Go up to the right, leaving Rue de la Sapinière on your left. Continue straight ahead for about 400 metres until you reach a T-junction.
(4) At this point, you will see a potale (a niche containing a statue of the Virgin Mary or a patron saint) on your right. Turn left and after about 100 metres, enter the Bois de Gesves on your right. Follow the path through the forest for about 1 km until you reach a crossroads at the edge of the forest, where there is a small hunting observatory.
(5) At this observatory, take the path on the left and follow it between the forest and the edge. After 400 m, take the path that enters the woods, following the markings (green rectangle), and join the Samson River at the bottom of this path. Follow the path to the left and walk along the Samson until you reach the Chaussée de Gramptinne (N942).
(6) Do not take the road, but stay on the narrow path that runs alongside and overlooks it. The path then leads to a road that climbs steeply.
(7) After 300 m, descend to the right towards the Chaussée de Gramptinne. When you reach the road, follow it to the left for about 100 metres and turn right onto Rue des Carrières towards Assesse (signposted Assesse 5). Pass in front of the old Bizonzon quarries and observe the rusted metal structures.
(8) Further on, opposite the house on your right, take the path on your left. At first, this path runs alongside the magnificent Béronsart estate, crossed by the Samson stream. At the top of the path, follow Rue des Moulins, leaving Rue de Houte on your right.
(9) Take the next street on the right, Rue de Surhuy, and continue along this street until you reach a T-junction with Rue Ry del Vau.
(10) Turn left and go up the hill. At the top, take Chaussée de Gramptinne on the right, which will take you back to your starting point (S/E).
