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.

This route takes you from the German-speaking region of the Eastern Cantons in Eupen to the Flemish region of the Voer in Remerdael, following a mainly rural route with plenty of paths and tracks that sometimes hold a few surprises in store. I’ll leave you to discover them for yourselves as you explore these paths that I’ve enjoyed so much.

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.

The hike starts at the Collège Notre-Dame in Gemmenich. This is a very beautiful hike that alternates between small roads, forest paths and trails along streams, with magnificent views of the Moresnet viaduct.

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.

Limbourg dominates the region from its rocky outcrop. In this ancient fortress, it is pleasant to stroll through the streets and around Place Saint-Georges. With its preserved charm inherited from the Middle Ages, exceptional monuments and splendid views of the surrounding area, it is truly a rare gem in Wallonia!

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.

A route through the countryside and some woodland, mostly along marked trails (Balade des Échaliers andGR® du Pays de Herve)

The Lassaulx Cross commemorates Mademoiselle Lassaulx, who was fatally attacked on Friday 20 March 1903 whilst returning from Verviers, where she had gone to sell her butter and eggs and do some shopping. She succumbed to her injuries the following day. Ultimately, no culprit was formally identified. Five years later, another murder took place in the village: Mrs Ruwet suffered the same fate as her friend, Mrs Lassaulx. The investigation revealed absolutely nothing, and a veil of mystery shrouded these unpunished crimes.

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.

Between Limbourg and Goé, the small hamlet of Hèvremont marks the entrance to the wood of the same name. It will appeal to lovers of old buildings as well as walkers, who will enjoy the wooded surroundings and the view over the Bovegnée valley. In the past, the inhabitants of Hèvremont, mostly farmers, spinners or weavers, were parishioners of Goé.

A lovely circular walk starting from the Route de La Gileppe (N629). We head to the village of Jalhay via the Chemin des Échaliers. We take the Chemin des Monts (Chênerie) to reach Herbiester and, via the Route de La Croix du Baron, the woods of La Gileppe, following the route. The circular walk is completed by passing through the Cœur de Marie.

A superb forest walk through the Getzbach and Hill valleys, on either side of the Ternell house. Quite challenging as it features numerous uneven paths, covered with stones and roots.

For those who like to cover a lot of ground, there are various forests (coniferous and deciduous) to explore, as well as the boardwalks and peat bogs of the Hautes Fagnes.

Discover one of Belgium’s wildest rivers, the Helle (Hill in German), starting from the old forest house at Ternell, and the Hautes-Fagnes where it rises. A long nature walk over varied terrain: forest paths (deciduous and spruce), dry and wet grassy paths and tracks, boardwalks (over very marshy ground), stony paths, tarmac paths.

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.
