Journey to La Roche de Faux

Walking route no. 1 with the blue rectangle marker

This hike starts at the Andenne Arena and takes you on a discovery of the countryside and woods west of Andenne. You begin by crossing a surprising place called Fond du Chenal, before climbing up into the Bois de Stud and reaching the Andenne Golf Course. You then walk through the countryside towards the village of Groynne. Enjoy the walk, as this is one of the most beautiful paths in the area! When you leave the GR®, you will arrive at Rue des Échavées, which you should cross carefully. You will then enter the Bois de Faux, where you will climb up to the beautiful viewpoint of La Roche de Faux. Please note that the first section of the path is very steep (it is possible to bypass it via Rue Abbéchamps). The last part of the walk takes you back through the narrow streets to the centre of Andenne. On your way, you will pass the pretty Chapelle Saint-Roch, then the charming Fontaine de l'Ours, and finally the Place des Tilleuls.
