Hotton walks
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.
The wooded heights of the Ourthe river at the start of Hotton
This walk begins by following one of Wallonia's iconic rivers, with some beautiful rocks as a bonus, before offering a pleasant loop through the forests and countryside south of the tourist town.
Broom walk from Waharday
The deforested hillsides in the Waharday, Chéoux and Hodister areas have been replanted with various species of shrubs, including broom, which has taken root there in their thousands.When they flower in May, they light up the whole area with their characteristic magnificent yellow colour.The icing on the cake is that the numerous meadows are also illuminated in yellow by buttercups.A real treat for the eyes.
In search of a lost cross in Rendeux
We set off in search of the Croix Monseur-Kinet located near the Saint-Thibaut Chapel. We didn't find it! But we found others. A mainly forestroute offering views of the Ourthe valley and its tributaries here and there.
Hike without description, to be followed with the Visorando app.
Walk to the sources of the Hédrée from Lignières
The Hédrée river forms in the marshy area of the forest on the outskirts of Marche-en-Famenne between the villages of Gênes (Rendeux) and Bande (Nassogne).The route crosses this rushing stream at the ford on the path shortly after kilometre 2 and then follows one of its tributaries, whose bed runs alongside the path for just under the next kilometre.This is not the only wet spot on the walk: you often have to take a path through the undergrowth instead of the road until you reach the junction with Rue des Fagnes at kilometre 4.4.After a well-deserved break, it's back to the same thing for about 2 kilometres after crossing the national road.The last 4 kilometres are much drier.A short stop on the bridge at the bottom of Grimbièmont allows you to see how much the waters of the Hédrée have swollen over the first few kilometres of its course.In autumn, the circular offers not only the beautiful colours of nature but also an incredible diversity of mushrooms.

In the valley of flavours, a walk between the Condroz and the Famenne
A pleasant, quiet and secluded setting. The route, which is often through woodland, is ideal for observing wildlife and remarkable trees, including an old oak and a sequoia. There are several interesting viewpoints.
This is a variation of a local walk called 'du Chêne au Gibet' (from the oak tree to the gallows). The route also follows part ofthe GR®575.
In the beautiful region marking the boundary between the Condroz and the Famenne, you can enjoy a superb forest walk with beautiful views.
Forest loop in the heart of the Ardennes via Samrée

The bridges over the Aisne (5) and the Lembrée, after the (13), have temporarily disappeared. If you start this hike, please bear in mind that you may have to wade across the river (5) as there is no other alternative.
From Nassogne to Masbourg and Ambly
A pleasant walk through the hills and valleys of the Nassogne countryside and woods. It first takes you to the Chapel and Calvary of St-Léonard before descending towards the Masblette stream and the village of Masbourg. This is followed by a very steep climb up a very stony path on the agricultural plateau between Masbourg and Ambly. You may need a machete to approach Ambly, but the view on arrival is magnificent. The return to Nassogne is a little harder on the calves, but you won't need a machete: the path is a little wider and well cleared.
Ferrières and the tour of the Ruisseau de la Souris
A peaceful stroll with magnificent views of the forests. It ends on a welcoming terrace. The walk starts in the village. Halfway along, you reach the highest point. Here, the walk takes you along a quiet road. Then you descend towards the village through a small wood, passing an enclosure occupied by long-haired pigs!
