Bouillon (Belgique) walks

This fully signposted cross-border trail links Bouillon Castle in Belgium to Sedan Castle in France. This is one of the possible return routes for the hike from one castle to another across the border, hike no. 36479520 After following the Semois river, you will climb up to Corbion, a small village perched high in the municipality of Bouillon. Then, after crossing the border stream near the "Maison Verlaine", you will join the old Bouillonnais road, which will take you gently to the Sedan region.

This is a fairly long hike through the woods, with good paths and signposted trails. There are some nice climbs and numerous views of the Semois, the Ardennes forest and Bouillon.

From the Pont de Cordemoy, climb the Auclin hill to discover its viewpoints and belvedere. Continue on to the viewpoints of the Abbaye Notre-Dame and L'Épine. Cross the 55-metre-long suspension bridge over the Semois at the Moulin de l'Épine. Set off to discover the viewpoint of the Rocher du Pendu, the botanical and geographical arboretum and finish with a view of Bouillon Castle from La Ramonette.

This short, mainly forest walk will take you close to the Semois river and offer beautiful views of its winding valley.

Loop passing by the resting place of the great L.D. A route with elevation changes and beautiful scenery, but not too difficult. You can even avoid getting your feet wet. About 4½ hours of walking at a good pace.

22 October 2025: first part of the route revised due to the recent installation of a fence on a forest plot. An exclusively forest route, sometimes wild, near Belgium. Especially in its first part, it takes in natural areas that are rarely visited. Modest streams have carved out a surprising landscape here. La Roche au Sel, Le Gros Chêne, and L'Étang la Motte are worth a quick look in the second part of the route.

This figure-of-eight hike takes you along pretty paths to five viewpoints and Roche Percée, a natural curiosity steeped in legend. Although classified as moderately difficult, this circuit requires a good level of fitness to tackle the steep gradients.

A loop between Corbion and Bouillon, on both banks of the Semois. A castle, an abbey, viewpoints and the crossing of the Semois on the magnificent Passerelle de l'Épine footbridge.

Three villages on the banks of or overlooking the Semois, where you can explore ridges, ladders and viewpoints.

This forest route follows a variety of paths, including many sections of the Pays Sedanais mountain bike routes and various forest trails in Villers Cernay, Francheval and Pouru-aux-Bois.The elevation changes are not excessive and the numerous streams that line the route add a special charm to this route. This is a difficult route requiring some portage.

This route combines rural exploration, panoramic views, rocks and forest single trails, between the water's edge and rocky passages. Although the outward journey is not particularly difficult, please note that the ridge crossing is a demanding section that should not be underestimated!

Welcome to Rochehaut for a hike. Bring your camera. It's not easy, but it's doable. You'll need to set aside a whole day for it. If you're carrying a rucksack, don't overload it; just take what you need. Don't forget to bring water shoes, as there are five crossings of the Semois (the first is via a footbridge and the others are via fords).

Passing by La Potale and the Chapel of Saint Barbara, patron saint of slate miners, set off to discover the remains of the Hermitage of Saint Bernard of Bertrix, starting from La Roche aux Corbeaux in Herbeumont. Along the way, look out for the various slate quarries known as La Côte de Champion, La Goutelle Husson and Linglé.

An easy walk around the village of La Forêt, starting from Vresse-sur-Semois and passing by the Sentier des Légendes and the Pont de Claies (uphill in summer, otherwise take the alternative route on the way back).

The village of Naomé is located in the heart of the Southern Ardennes Nature Park, which covers nine Belgian municipalities in southern Wallonia: Bertrix, Bièvre, Bouillon, Daverdisse, Gedinne, Herbeumont, Paliseul, Vresse-sur-Semois and Wellin. This walk, which takes you through both countryside and forest, starts in Naomé.
