Jalhay walks

Solwaster, a small village at the foot of the fagne, 16 km from Verviers, is unique in that it is located between two of the most beautiful rivers in the fagne: the Statte, which rises in the peat bogs of the Hautes-Fagnes, in the Wihonfagne fagne, and the Hoëgne, which rises in the Polleur fagne. These two rivers welcome us into a magical landscape of fens and forests.

The route is marked (yellow rectangles) and shown on the "Jalhay-Spa-Stavelot-Theux" walking map, available from the Tourist Office.The first half is a superb walk (with a few difficult and potentially slippery sections) along the Sawe.The second half (when you leave the Sawe) is the return to Solwaster on a more relaxing but more mundane path.There is also the option of a longer 8.5 km version (blue rectangles).

The Sawe and the Statte are two beautiful streams that cascade down from the Fagnes plateau and converge near the village of Solwaster. The ascent of the Sawe is surprising for the diversity of views in the forest and valley. The only thing missing is the Nutons. After crossing the Fagne and its typical open landscapes, you reach the Statte, which you descend along its waterfalls. Water is omnipresent on this route.

Route from the village of Herbiester, mainly through beautiful forests with changing scenery, downhill towards the Gileppe to the bottom of the dam lake of the same name, and back up to the village. A significant part of the route is on small asphalt roads: between the crossing points (S/E) to (2) and (4) to (6), plus the short return to the village.

The route starts in Jehanster and takes you on a walk through streets, country lanes and meadows.

This hike on the Hautes Fagnes plateau in the Hautes-Fagnes-Eifel Natural Park will take you to the highest point in Belgium, where you can discover its unique flora and landscape. The hike is more enjoyable during the week (fewer people) in good weather or when there is snow on the ground.

A walk with varied landscapes in the Hautes Fagnes Nature Park. There are many walks to enjoy in this region with its extraordinary landscapes. I invite you to discover the hike we did as a family in July 2019. The children enjoyed the watchtowers, the duckboards, the streams... We even saw a deer. If necessary, it is possible to shorten this route. It is an easy hike as there is little elevation gain, but the path is uneven in places.

Discover Noir Flohay, a group of petrified pine trees. In the middle of this landscape typical of the Hautes Fagnes, the return journey is along the Helle, a small river that rises in the Fagnes. There are two possible shortcuts, for circuits of approximately 7 and 13 km respectively.

Walk in the Malchamps Fagnes region through peat bogs, forests and meadows. Set off at sunrise with the sound of deer bellowing in the background.

Walk along rivers through a canyon and tour of the Moûpa area.

At the edge of the Hertogenwald Forest, the path takes you through fields and woods to the wetlands of the Hoëgne and then to the village of Surister, where you can discover the Château de la Louveterie between the waters of the Borchène and the Ruisseau de Sècheval.

Starting from Spa, a walk in the woods of Staneux will take you along the little Chawion, where you can see several beaver dams. Further on, the Chawion pond is a good place to take a short break.

Starting from the car park at Domaine de Bérinzenne, the hike begins by crossing the site before gradually entering the forest for just over a third of its total distance. This is followed by a few kilometres of countryside around the village of Creppe before rejoining the forest at the bottom of the Bois de Mambaye. After passing the castle of the same name, which has been converted into a nature education centre, the route quickly joins the Meyerbeer stream and follows it upstream to the Fontaine de Géronstère, one of the many springs in the spa town. Food and refreshments are available on site. Return through the forest and uphill to the starting point.

A splendid hike along the Warche ridges, offering superb panoramic views of the region.The highlight is the beautifully renovated Reinhardstein Castle. In the early 1970s, it was a real ruin that we never imagined would be reborn in such a way! The first 2 kilometres of the walk take place in the countryside. The rest is almost entirely forest, passing notably by the rocky outcrop known as 'Nez de Napoléon', the Robertville dam, the Kalbusch Mill (campsite and tavern open from Thursday to Sunday) and the impressive Warche Quarry.

The Bayehon is known for its waterfall, the second largest in Belgium after Coo. There are many Pouhon springs, naturally carbonated mineral springs, to discover along the route. You will finish with a tour of Reinhardstein Castle.

A pleasant walk that will take you to the Bayehon Waterfall, the second largest in Belgium. It is fed by the Hautes Fagnes springs, so its flow varies depending on the season. The route takes you through different types of vegetation, from deciduous trees to pines and the Fagne. Most of the route follows streams, which are crossed numerous times by small bridges.

3, 2, 1... let's go! Put on your trainers, grab your map and set off on a walk! Look up: along the route, you may be surprised by some small details. 3km circular walk (to be repeated for verification), accessible to all. Photo trail organised as part of the Fureur de lire festival by the Verviers Library.

A lovely walk around an engineering structure between spruce and oak forests. Along forest paths, you will discover the beautiful Helle Valley and the Vesdre dam lake at the confluence of the Getz and Vesdre (Weser) rivers.
