Tinlot walks

20 km route of the ADEPS walk organised in Fraiture in Condroz. A beautiful circular route in the Condroz region of Liège. The start is at the church in Fraiture. There are several options for shortening the route if necessary.

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, 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.

From the village centre, the route first heads towards the church and its distinctive bell tower, then on to the castle via a beautiful tree-lined avenue.After a short tour of the castle grounds, head for the nature reserve overlooking the Hoyoux valley and the Vivaqua facilities upstream of the pumping station. This valley was once home to the village of Petit-Modave.The route follows the course of the Hoyoux (from quite a distance) through the woods to the beautifully restored old farmhouse of Tibiémont.A little further on, you will discover the hamlet of Val Tibiémont, located on either side of the Hoyoux. The ford, which can be quite impressive in flood conditions, is fortunately equipped with a small permanent footbridge. Please note that there is no railing, just a rather narrow slab laid on a few stone or concrete bases.At Clavier Station, the route follows the RAVeL, sometimes in open countryside, sometimes in the woods, to the old Modave-Village stop.

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

A very beautiful walk in the Hoyoux valley, alternating between wooded sections, open landscapes with beautiful views and charming sites.

Departure from the car park opposite the water catchment (Chaussée de Pailhe, 4577 Modave GPS coordinates: 50.448143, 5. 284329), passing by the water catchment and Modave Castle. Pass through the Ravel (an old disused railway line converted for pedestrians and cyclists) between Modave and Vyle-et-Tharoul. Return to the starting point through the woods of Vyle-et-Tharoul.

This walk, probably a classic in the region, starts at Modave Castle (visits in season) and follows the Hoyoux valley, sometimes very close to the river, sometimes much further away, to the outskirts of the village of Avins.

Starting from Modave Castle, this walk takes you through the southern part of the Modave nature reserve and the Hoyoux valley. You will also discover the hamlet of Tibiémont, the Val ford, the site of the former Survillers castle and its beautiful viewpoint. A beautiful forest path (the wooded lane) will take you gently back to the castle. This walk is recognised by the Wallonia Tourist Board (Belgium).

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.

While the situation is probably clear to locals, day visitors will be completely lost.Vierset-Barse is a former municipality formed by the village of Vierset, located on the heights, and the hamlet of Barse, located below on the right bank of the Hoyoux. Today, it is part of Modave.The starting point, the old Barse railway station, on the other hand, is on the left bank and located in the current hamlet of Ereffe (municipality of Marchin).

This beautiful hike takes you to the superb village of Villers-le-Temple, which was the seat of an important commandery of the Order of the Temple from the 13th century onwards (hence its name). It is a varied route, with no difficulty other than its length, combining small roads and little-used forest paths, passing through small villages and very quiet hamlets, offering some magnificent landscapes.

This is a somewhat challenging hike through the woods on either side of the Fond d'Ohxe valley in the Saint-Lambert National Forest.Starting from the ruins of the Church of Notre-Dame in Ombret, the circuit skirts the hamlet of Les Communes before climbing into the woods, then descending shortly afterwards into the Fond d'Ohxe and climbing back up the other side through the Bois des Dames and Bourgogne woods. The return journey is again through the woods, on the opposite side, offering some beautiful views of the Meuse valley at the end of the walk.

Between the gravel pit and the puddingstone, you’ll find the Meuse, the fishway, the lock and the new Ampsin footbridge, the Tihange power station, Neuville Castle, and the state-owned forests of Neuville-sous-Huy and Saint-Lambert.Take the time to walk around the gravel pit and enjoy its aquatic wildlife!It’s a lovely walk, even if the N90 on the other bank of the Meuse is a bit noisy.The extension of the N684 between Tihange and Strée has been under construction for over ten years. Make the most of the remaining months (before the end of 2026) for a quieter experience!

This hike follows part of an old Vita trail in the Bois de Tihange, which is fairly quiet. You will walk alongside two streams: the Rau de Chéra and the Rau de Bonne Espérance. The road to the car park is very quiet.

90% of the walk is on forest paths, partly following the Bois de Tihange walk.

This route, slightly modified to allow for a start and finish at a station, was part of an organised walk that attracted several dozen walkers, all of whom left delighted. The route offers the chance to admire the beauty of the Condroz forests and landscapes, as well as that of the Fond d’Oxhe stream valley.

Circular provided by the SI. Walk alternating between ascents and descents, without any major difficulties. The last section of the Chemin des Crêtes is a steep descent.

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.

This variation of our Three Provinces Walk in Bonsin is a little shorter but, it should be noted, involves a little more tarmac on fairly quiet country roads.                     

This long, almost entirely woodland circular route takes you on a journey to discover the natural beauty—often unexpected—located just south of the ‘fiery city’, not far from the industrial activity of the Meuse Valley. Whilst the aim of the walk is, as its title suggests, the viewpoint at La Roche aux Faucons overlooking the Ourthe Valley and the town of Esneux, the route also takes you through some beautiful woodlands such as the Bois de Plainevaux, the Bois de Nomont-Famelette, the undivided state-owned forest of La Vecquée and its arboretum, where the sequoia alone is worth the detour.The curious Source du Père Antoine will surprise many on the way back.Do stop off along the way to admire the Château de Plainevaux.

A varied hike, between quiet asphalt roads, paths, countryside, villages and crossing Durbuy. Lovely views.
