Tenneville walks

The Ruisseau de Basseille has its source in the Fagne de la Borne near the Saint-Hubert Aerodrome and flows into the western Ourthe near Ortheuville. This walk follows its course more or less closely for about 6 km.

The hike takes you on a journey of discovery through the countryside and forests on the heights of the Deux Ourthes Natural Park. The balanced alternation between panoramic views and deciduous and coniferous forests provides all the ingredients for a beautiful and enjoyable outing in nature.

Set off to explore the River La Basseille, a tributary of the Ourthe which rises in Saint-Hubert. The river, whose banks form a Nature Reserve, flows exclusively through the Forest of Freyr for around 10 km. Please note: there are two sections that are more difficult to follow; a GPX track is recommended.

From the beautiful village of Lavacherie, set off to explore the Chapelle de la Bonne Dame and the Cheslin viewpoint. On your way back, pass by the Golet campsite and through the village streets, where magnificent houses built from local stone come into view.

The valleys of the western Ourthe, its tributary the Laval, and the Orti Nature Reserve are particularly interesting at the start. After Wachirock, a succession of lovely countryside scenes unfolds, with panoramic views across this beautiful, rolling region. The stretch between Tillet and Amberloup offers a particularly relaxing atmosphere. The return journey along the outskirts of Tonny, through the countryside, in the undergrowth or along the edges of woodland, provides a very pleasant finale to this easy walk.Keen observers will probably spot the odd remnant of a work of art near the nature reserve, the gigantic white building of the holiday centre overlooking Amberloup, and the Château du Celly in the direction of the Cheslin Rocks. Happy spotting! Well worth a go in any season!

This beautiful hike in Sainte-Ode takes you on a journey of discovery through the valleys of the Ourthe, Baseille and Laval streams, alternating between forest and pretty panoramic views of this region of the Ardennes, with a return trip through the Orti Nature Reserve.

Here is a circular walking route within the Two Ourthes Nature Park, offering a lovely mix of countryside and woodland (alternating between coniferous and deciduous trees) with magnificent views of the Ardennes hills between La Roche-en-Ardenne and the Pays de Bastogne. The section along the River Ourthe is wonderfully wild, and progress is slower here than on the wide country lanes to the north of the route. It is likely that this route would be impassable without getting your feet wet in the event of heavy flooding.

This circular route goes around a few villages south of La Roche-en-Ardenne, encroaching slightly on the territory of Tenneville.Although mainly forested, the route offers some beautiful panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and hills.

As a result, the walk is more rural than wooded, offering more panoramic views of this beautiful region. Whilst the natural scenery is lovely, don’t expect too many architectural or artistic highlights: there are a few works of art along the old country lane between Amberloup and Lavacherie, the Saint-Hubert Chapel in Bonnerue and the Church of Saint-Ouen in Tillet with its separate bell tower, but that’s about it.

The walk begins in an orchard with heritage fruit varieties and an apiary, before following a sunken path that descends to the bottom of the Laval Valley. Beavers, ponds, artistic installations... so many discoveries await you.

A few sculptures, a bit of nature reserve with the occasional sign of beavers here and there, and a bit of countryside: that’s what this walk has to offer.

Starting from the Ronchamps pond, the walk begins by winding through the countryside before heading into the forest.Make sure you’re wearing suitable footwear, as the route follows a stream along a path overgrown with tall grass at the start and flooded with water towards the end. This valley is magnificent and wonderfully wild!The first climb of the route leads out into the countryside with a lovely view to the north over the hills of the Ourthe Valley.A short detour (off the route) to the centre of Beausaint allows you to admire its castle.From Beausaint to Vecmont, it’s (almost) straight ahead and through the countryside. There’s a small chapel and a picnic table between Ronchampay and Vecmont.Shortly after Vecmont, there is (unfortunately) a short kilometre of minor road before entering the woods, which the route leaves only briefly to cross the N89 again and finally return to the starting point.

This circular walk follows the wide forest tracks through part of the future Nassonia National Park and the Deux-Ourthes Nature Park.Starting from the Sapin Fî car park, the walk first heads towards the Rouge Poncé birch forest and its boardwalks, then towards the Wallonia Log Park before branching off towards Mochamps, the Fagnes de Priesse observation tower and the Croix des Russes.After a long descent into the Rabani valley, the walk crosses the Masblette, the iconic river of Fourneau-Saint-Michel, via a small footbridge following the destruction of the two-arched stone bridge during the floods of summer 2021.On the return journey, the route climbs slowly but surely, following the Palogne stream back up to Sapin Fî.

With beautiful panoramic views over the delightfully undulating countryside, this walk starting from the hamlet of Beauplateau is sure to delight many. Cow pastures dominate the landscape: there are few crops and no real woodland sections, although you do skirt round the odd copse here and there… and are sometimes in for a lovely surprise. Those who dislike tarmac, however, might want to give this a miss, even though the many small country roads taken aren’t particularly busy. The church at Tillet, with its freestanding bell tower, is well worth a visit.

The Agaric walk, adapted here, offers a wide variety of landscapes along the route: sometimes wooded with scrub, sometimes with deciduous trees, and often open, with beautiful panoramic views of the neighbouring rolling countryside.

Starting from the hamlet of Beauplateau and the former convent built in 1880, set off to discover the Chapel of Notre-Dame de Lorette via covered and uncovered trails, roads and dirt tracks.

Le Laval is the name given to the stream that originates upstream of Magerotte and flows into the Western Ourthe at Sainte-Ode after passing through Magery, Houmont, Rechrival, Laval (near Laval Castle), Fosset and Sprimont.‘Le Tram’ is the former local railway line that linked Marche to Bastogne: you’ll only really see the route itself near the ‘Espace de jeux’ in Chenogne. A number of signposted walks have been marked out in the region based on this railway line.This highly scenic walk takes you through the rolling Ardennes countryside, with its meadows and farmland. There is only 1.5 km of woodland on this route, towards the end between Chenogne and the gigantic commemorative cross erected ‘in the middle of nowhere’.
