Bouillon – Florenville
16.41 mi

-1,470 ft
8h 55
Very difficult
Departure from Bouillon (Belgique) (Province de Luxembourg)
Leaving Bouillon and its castle to reach Florenville means linking the two ends of the Semois by crossing the plateau and its forests rather than following the river’s course and meanders; it is therefore a long climb followed by a gradual descent; it also means leaving a town on tarmac, travelling along stony paths and dirt tracks, crossing two fords, and returning to tarmac to reach the town again. And it’s a long walk of over 26 kilometres. The accommodation I’ve chosen in Florenville is the campsite.
