La Salm Valley, whose real name is Le Glain This stage ofthe GRP®571leaves the Amblève Valley and heads up the slopes of the La Salm Valley, known as Le Glain. The route changes banks several times until it reaches Vielsalm in the Pays des Macralles.

The surroundings of Trois-Ponts and Coo are mainly forested, with paths and trails running through coniferous and deciduous trees. The rugged terrain highlights the panoramic views of the Ardennes and promises a sometimes very challenging route. In the heart of nature, the route connects with the site of Coo and its lower lake before returning to Trois-Ponts, again mainly through the woods.

A lovely walk around Rencheux, ideal for families, not accessible to people with reduced mobility. Suitable in all seasons. Wear good walking shoes. Pets are allowed but must be kept on a lead. Mainly forest paths.

La Salm Valley, known as Le Glain This stage ofthe GRP®571starts in Vielsalm in the Pays des Macralles, crosses the river at Salmchâteau and enters the Deux Ourthes Nature Park, heading towards the Ardennes plateau and Gouvy.

Discover the landscapes and history of the people who shaped the Salm region. A lovely walk with very little road, mainly forest paths. Beautiful views at Bec du Corbeau, where history and nature come together on this walk.

Starting from the car park at Domaine de Bérinzenne, the hike begins by crossing the site before gradually entering the forest for just over a third of its total distance. This is followed by a few kilometres of countryside around the village of Creppe before rejoining the forest at the bottom of the Bois de Mambaye. After passing the castle of the same name, which has been converted into a nature education centre, the route quickly joins the Meyerbeer stream and follows it upstream to the Fontaine de Géronstère, one of the many springs in the spa town. Food and refreshments are available on site. Return through the forest and uphill to the starting point.

A tributary of the Amblève and 3.5 km long, with an average gradient of 7.5%, the Ninglinspo is one of the few torrents in Belgium. Come and discover this valley, which was coveted by gold prospectors in the last century, and walk in a landscape worthy of the highest mountain rivers. With its waterfalls and "baths", the Ninglinspo will offer you an unforgettable moment of relaxation. As for the Chefna, less popular with tourists, it will take you away from it all with its wild side.

Starting from the old school in Ernonheid (Al Vîle Sicole), the hike explores forests (mainly) and countryside between the villages of Ernonheid and La Rouge-Minière, passing not only near the hamlet of Paradis, but also Sainte-Anne Chapel, the Misery Brewery and Grimonster Castle. Hike without description to be followed using the Visorando app.

The Bayehon is known for its waterfall, the second largest in Belgium after Coo. There are many Pouhon springs, naturally carbonated mineral springs, to discover along the route. You will finish with a tour of Reinhardstein Castle.

A splendid walk along the Warche ridges, offering superb panoramic views of the region.The highlight is Reinhardstein Castle, magnificently renovated. At the beginning of the 1970s, it was a veritable ruin that we could never have imagined would be brought back to life in such a way! The first 2 kilometres of the walk are in the countryside. The rest is almost entirely woodland, passing the rocky spur known as 'Nez de Napoléon', the Robertville dam, the Kalbusch Mill (campsite and tavern open Thursday and Sunday) and the impressive Carrière de la Warche.

This stage ofthe GRP® 571 starts in Remouchamps, passes through Sedoz and Fonds de Quarreux close to the Amblève, follows the Chefna stream to the border of the Sources Nature Park and descends into the valley to finish in Stoumont.

A pleasant walk that will take you to the Bayehon Waterfall, the second largest in Belgium. It is fed by the Hautes Fagnes springs, so its flow varies depending on the season. The route takes you through different types of vegetation, from deciduous trees to pines and the Fagne. Most of the route follows streams, which are crossed numerous times by small bridges.

This marked walk, which appears on various walking maps, is one of the most beautiful walks in Belgium. It offers superb views of Reinhardstein Castle, which the walk passes by.

Crossed by the Ourthe Orientale, Gouvy boasts magnificent landscapes to discover along the water, countryside and forests alternating between deciduous and coniferous trees. In autumn, it is of course the deciduous trees that make the biggest impression! Hike without description to be followed with the Visorando app.

The route is marked (yellow rectangles) and shown on the "Jalhay-Spa-Stavelot-Theux" walking map, available from the Tourist Office.The first half is a superb walk (with a few difficult and potentially slippery sections) along the Sawe.The second half (when you leave the Sawe) is the return to Solwaster on a more relaxing but more mundane path.There is also the option of a longer 8.5 km version (blue rectangles).

This is a reposing walk between the fields and along small rivers. Recommend for people who love the country and nature.

The Sawe and the Statte are two beautiful streams that cascade down from the Fagnes plateau and converge near the village of Solwaster. The ascent of the Sawe is surprising for the diversity of views in the forest and valley. The only thing missing is the Nutons. After crossing the Fagne and its typical open landscapes, you reach the Statte, which you descend along its waterfalls. Water is omnipresent on this route.

Solwaster, a small village at the foot of the fagne, 16 km from Verviers, is unique in that it is located between two of the most beautiful rivers in the fagne: the Statte, which rises in the peat bogs of the Hautes-Fagnes, in the Wihonfagne fagne, and the Hoëgne, which rises in the Polleur fagne. These two rivers welcome us into a magical landscape of fens and forests.

You will have covered almost 18 kilometres and will see two other very different types of boundary markers: two stone markers marking the former Belgian-Prussian border and two metal markers, still in use today, between Belgium and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.The Ourthe river is not very visible, but you will be riding alongside a beautiful nature reserve along its tributary at the end of the route, called Fooschtbaach in the Grand Duchy and Pihon in Belgium.

Starting from the ruins of Franchimont Castle, discover Theux and its surroundings, including some remarkable trees, including an impressive sequoia, the Ru de Chawion Nature Reserve, the hamlets of Sassor and Sasserotte, passages along the Wayai and Hoëgne rivers, some beautiful panoramic views, long stretches through the magnificent Bois de Staneux and a " work dedicated to crayfish".

This hike on the Hautes Fagnes plateau in the Hautes-Fagnes-Eifel Natural Park will take you to the highest point in Belgium, where you can discover its unique flora and landscape. The hike is more enjoyable during the week (fewer people) in good weather or when there is snow on the ground.

A walk with varied landscapes in the Hautes Fagnes Nature Park. There are many walks to enjoy in this region with its extraordinary landscapes. I invite you to discover the hike we did as a family in July 2019. The children enjoyed the watchtowers, the duckboards, the streams... We even saw a deer. If necessary, it is possible to shorten this route. It is an easy hike as there is little elevation gain, but the path is uneven in places.

Discover Noir Flohay, a group of petrified pine trees. In the middle of this landscape typical of the Hautes Fagnes, the return journey is along the Helle, a small river that rises in the Fagnes. There are two possible shortcuts, for circuits of approximately 7 and 13 km respectively.

A challenging walk in the Upper Ourthe region, along the wildest and most picturesque section of the valley. Discover an ancient Celtic fortress and the Hérou panorama, rated 2 stars by Michelin.
