Starting from the old Passe Peau mill on the Andenelle stream, this nature walk heads towards Coutisse and Les Arches Royales.
I have no idea why this place is called Les Arches Royales, but it is quite charming and very quiet, whether visited by the King or the rest of the world: you will discover a few buildings and an old, isolated farm on the Andenne countryside plateau.
Apart from the centre of the village of Coutisse, its church, its hospice and a few modern houses, the route offers nothing but countryside and woodland, passing by a few farms – some old, such as those at La Croix and Les Arches Royales, and others still in operation, such as Grosse.
