Trip to the Sclaigneaux Nature Reserve

Marked walking route no. 5 with the red rectangle marker

This hike of almost 3 km takes you on a journey of discovery through the flora and fauna of the Sclaigneaux Nature Reserve. A listed site and NATURA 2000 area, the Reserve impresses with its wild beauty and the variety of ecosystems it brings together in a relatively small area (around 50 hectares). During your walk, you will see three ecosystems: heathland, limestone grasslands and forest. If you wish, there is a longer 5 km route. If you continue towards Loyisse, you will leave the Reserve and descend into the valley. You then follow the stream back up via the paths and road. You cross a small ford before reaching a pretty forest path that takes you back to the Reserve and your starting point.
