Other walks in the area
Circular walk between the woods of Gemmenich and Moresnet
A lovely circular route starting from Gemmenich, offering a chance to discover varied landscapes including forest paths, small country lanes and the railway heritage of the Moresnet area.
The walk crosses the woods between Gemmenich and La Calamine, passing notably through the Red Cross forest junction, then descends towards Buschhausen and Moresnet, following the old railway infrastructure in places. The return leg offers a different perspective on the region, passing through Marveld, Rodbusch and the Gemmenich countryside.
A varied and pleasant route that alternates between wooded sections, footpaths, small roads and views of the rolling countryside of the Three Borders region.
Starting from Sippenaeken and following the Geul, a tributary of the Gueule
A few kilometres from the tri-border point (Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands), the walk winds its way through wooded countryside, streams and sunken lanes. It benefits from a microclimate that shields the area from the north winds. Old farms and mills will delight you as you explore.
Circular from Hausset
Hike with quite a few forest trails.
The Val de Berwinne from Henri-Chapelle
A very beautiful walk in the Pays de Herve, offering lovely views over the Val de la Berwinne and the Aubel region. The route, mainly through wooded countryside, passes by the American memorial and the Henri-Chapelle golf course.
Walk in the Pays de Herve, between Aubel and Fourons
In the Pays de Herve, known for its hedgerows and livestock farming, Aubel is the land of syrup made from apples, pears and, in some cases, sugar beet... a real treat for many enthusiasts. The Fourons, which became a Limburg enclave after the political and linguistic disputes between Flemish and Walloons ended in the late 20th century, offer the same type of rolling countryside, but with a little more woodland. The region is also renowned, like the English countryside, for its countless country lanes, cattle grids, turnstiles and gates that prevent livestock from escaping onto the roads, into fields or into neighbours' pastures. Hikers will discover monumental churches as well as countless crosses, chapels and shrines.
Three Valleys Walk starting from Henri-Chapelle
This TOTEMUS hunt, called "La balade des trois vallées" (The Three Valleys Walk), follows the route of the marked "Promenade des Panoramas" walk, marked with a blue diamond, from the Maison du Tourisme du Pays de Herve.It is a beautiful discovery, taking you through streets and country lanes to little-known places on the edge of the golf course.
Remersdael – Mortroux
A short walk for this27th stage, but one packed with beautiful sights: buildings, panoramic views and landscapes. A stage where you really get a feel for what a steep climb or descent is like. They aren’t long, but your quadriceps will certainly feel the strain. It’s also a stage that gives pride of place to country lanes and footpaths.
In the land of Liège syrup
A beautiful circular route starting from the lovely village of Aubel, taking you through meadows, idyllic paths and wooded areas, passing close to the Berwinne. On a sunny day, take in these magnificent landscapes. A route that won’t disappoint.
