Villers-Cernay walks

This forest route follows a variety of paths, including many sections of the Pays Sedanais mountain bike routes and various forest trails in Villers Cernay, Francheval and Pouru-aux-Bois.The elevation changes are not excessive and the numerous streams that line the route add a special charm to this route. This is a difficult route requiring some portage.

22 October 2025: first part of the route revised due to the recent installation of a fence on a forest plot. An exclusively forest route, sometimes wild, near Belgium. Especially in its first part, it takes in natural areas that are rarely visited. Modest streams have carved out a surprising landscape here. La Roche au Sel, Le Gros Chêne, and L'Étang la Motte are worth a quick look in the second part of the route.

This is a fairly long hike through the woods, with good paths and signposted trails. There are some nice climbs and numerous views of the Semois, the Ardennes forest and Bouillon.

From the Pont de Cordemoy, climb the Auclin hill to discover its viewpoints and belvedere. Continue on to the viewpoints of the Abbaye Notre-Dame and L'Épine. Cross the 55-metre-long suspension bridge over the Semois at the Moulin de l'Épine. Set off to discover the viewpoint of the Rocher du Pendu, the botanical and geographical arboretum and finish with a view of Bouillon Castle from La Ramonette.

This fully signposted cross-border trail links Bouillon Castle in Belgium to Sedan Castle in France. This is one of the possible return routes for the hike from one castle to another across the border, hike no. 36479520 After following the Semois river, you will climb up to Corbion, a small village perched high in the municipality of Bouillon. Then, after crossing the border stream near the "Maison Verlaine", you will join the old Bouillonnais road, which will take you gently to the Sedan region.

A loop between Corbion and Bouillon, on both banks of the Semois. A castle, an abbey, viewpoints and the crossing of the Semois on the magnificent Passerelle de l'Épine footbridge.

This short, mainly forest walk will take you close to the Semois river and offer beautiful views of its winding valley.

Three villages on the banks of or overlooking the Semois, where you can explore ridges, ladders and viewpoints.

This route combines rural exploration, panoramic views, rocks and forest single trails, between the water's edge and rocky passages. Although the outward journey is not particularly difficult, please note that the ridge crossing is a demanding section that should not be underestimated!

Loop passing by the resting place of the great L.D. A route with elevation changes and beautiful scenery, but not too difficult. You can even avoid getting your feet wet. About 4½ hours of walking at a good pace.

This figure-of-eight hike takes you along pretty paths to five viewpoints and Roche Percée, a natural curiosity steeped in legend. Although classified as moderately difficult, this circuit requires a good level of fitness to tackle the steep gradients.

This walk takes all day, so you will need walking sticks to keep your balance when crossing, as well as water shoes and a towel. Do not attempt this walk the day after rain or in winter, as the currents will be too strong and the water too high.

Cornimont is the smallest village in the Bièvre area (46 inhabitants). It is every bit as charming as Gros-Fays, which is on the list of Belgium's most beautiful villages, with its schist stone houses and beech forest.

Also known as: Bohan-Membre Park. The valley is very steep-sided, with steep slopes, but part of the hike will be along the Semois and on the ridges.

The Table des Fées walk in Bohan is a circular route marked by yellow diamond signs, offering an immersion in the Ardennes countryside. The trail crosses the Basse Semois nature reserve, revealing legendary rock formations such as the Châtelet, the Cheminée and the Table des Fées. Hikers are rewarded with impressive views of the Semois valley.

The walk from La Croix to Bohan is a 5.2 km loop starting from the church, marked in red, white and red. A steep path leads to a cross offering a superb view of the Semois valley. The route continues through a peaceful forest to the La Cuve viewpoint, then gently descends back to the village. Ideal for lovers of nature and unobstructed views.

La Croix viewpoint and La Cuve viewpoint offer two beautiful views of the Bohan hills, which you can explore before returning via the Sahu woods.
