Other walks in the area
Exit to the Liège Condroz region from Ellemelle
The Condroz region is full of (small) castles and (large) farms, most of which are built from local stone. Some examples can be found in Ellemelle, Houchenée (castle), Baugnée (farm slightly north-east of the route) and Fraiture. The castle of Baugnée, on the other hand, is of a completely different style.
Villers-le-Temple, streams and forests
Villers-le-Temple, an ancient village marked by the Middle Ages, is set in a landscape of streams, bridges and paths connecting woods and farmland. Houripont and the Chessaine bridge bear witness to these historical passages. The Wetai and Fond d'Oxhe rivers have carved out cool, shady valleys that accompany the walk.
Around the village, the Bois de Bourgogne recalls its seigneurial history, the Bois des Dames feeds local legends, and the Bellegrange and Chaumont woods alternate between dense forests and bright clearings. Schist and limestone, discreet fauna and forest flora make this hike a peaceful and immersive experience, perfect for observing nature and enjoying the peace and quiet.
Around Hody via Limont and Tavier
A pleasant, easy walk through woods and countryside in the Liège Ardennes.
Getaway to Houte-si-Plou
This is a circular in the Liège Condroz region, mostly through forest, although the start and end are more rural.It is always a pure delight to walk in the woods of Esneux or Anthisnes, whatever the season.Houte-si-Plou has already been the subject of much discussion and, according to legend, much water, as it is said to be a miller asking his son to "listen for rain" when he went to bed and there was not enough water in the stream to run the mill.Nowadays, the expression Houte-si-Plou refers more to an imaginary place, unknown, non-existent or simply located at the end of the world, far from civilisation.
Between Ourthe and Condroz
Venture into enchanting forests, walk alongside meadows and fields of wheat, flax and rye, take in superb landscapes, and pass through villages whose architectural character remains intact. As you wander along the paths and trails, discover farmhouses bearing coats of arms and humble dwellings to which sandstone or limestone lends its nobility and value; immersing yourself in the heart of the Condroz means discovering the sources of the elements: earth, stone and water.
Nandrin Fond d'Oxhe
A very pleasant walk entirely through the forest. The numerous circular loops on this route make it easy to shorten the walk.
The descent to the car park follows a lovely little stream that flows into the Ruisseau d'Oxhe
Rotheux and Oie Enceinte circular
This is a lovely route starting from Rotheux, very pleasant and without any notable difficulties, which will take you along the woods and meadows of Bonsgnée, up to Berleur and back to the starting point through pleasant countryside with some lovely views of both sides of the valley.
You may even spot some of the local wildlife, including Highland cattle, geese, horses and other inhabitants of the region.
From Ombret to Neuville-sous-Huy via the Ampsin lock footbridge
A varied walk from the heights of the commune of Ombret, leading to the banks of the Meuse, which you can cross via the new cycle and footbridge at the Ampsin-Neuville lock and its facilities, including the original fish ladder. The return journey takes you through the Neuville-sous-Huy and Saint-Lambert national forest.
