From the Petit-Han Woods to the N833
Hike starting from the Petit-Han municipal school. There is a football pitch (easy and free parking, Rue des Pinèdes), a playground and picnic benches.Fully paved round trip, ideal for a stroll with a pushchair
Walk in Famenne-Ardenne from Petit-Han
Located mainly in Famenne, on the border with the Ardennes, this circular route alternates between woodland and countryside, with a short section along the River Ourthe.With very little elevation gain and plenty of hard-surfaced paths (cycle paths, local roads or access roads to residential estates), it presents no difficulty other than the odd slightly muddy footpath or forest track. Lovely views over the northern part of the Famenne and the Ourthe valley between the residential area of Plain de Holset (Monteuville) and Melreux.
Circular in the Petit-Han Woods
This is a walk starting from the Petit-Han community school and the football pitch (easy and free parking). Playground and picnic benches available on site.Part of the route is paved, the other part is accessible with a sturdy pushchair.
On the edge of the Condroz region around Borlon
This variation of our Three Provinces Walk in Bonsin is a little shorter but, it should be noted, involves a little more tarmac on fairly quiet country roads.
Via the hamlet of Borsu and the grounds of Hoyoux Castle from Méan
Circular route featuring sections through fields, woodland and along the road. A fairly accessible and pleasant route, including a section through the grounds of Hoyoux Castle.
A shorter alternative is available. This 6.7 km route does not pass by Hoyoux Castle.
Along the Ourthe between Bohon and Bomal
No, the walk doesn’t follow the banks of the Ourthe for 18 km… that would probably be very pretty but too monotonous over such a distance.Starting from the centre of Barvaux, the route begins by climbing the hill on the western side towards Durbuy (which you can visit off the trail) and reaches the Ourthe at the new relief car park.From there, the walk follows the river for just over 3 km before leaving it to reach the plateau between Tohogne and Herbet.After descending to the Ourthe and passing through Bomal, the walk climbs up the other side of the Ourthe and follows the lovely ridge path through the Mont des Pins and Mont Pelé Nature Reserve.
Hotton, a typical village in La Famenne
Limestone and blue stones make up a significant part of the habitat. Rue Haute is a fine example of this. Several limestone houses dating from the 18th century stand side by side. Among these are two listed buildings, the Moulin Faber and the Maison Godenir, which houses the Royal Tourist Office.The Aïve Cave/Neolithic cave, Ti Château/Roman camp, Trou Fré Djame... are other places you will encounter along this route.
