Best Hikes to Weißer Stein in Bocksvenn

Tips

  • The Weisse Stein is located in the moor, in the immediate vicinity of the German-Belgian border, near the B265, in the municipality of Büllingen, province of Liège. This boulder, the deposit of a glacier (moraine) marks the second highest point in Belgium, 693.05 m.
    Anecdote: In 2010, the VRT (Flemish Radio) reported that the Weisse Stein was at a height of 701 m according to the latest measurements using Google Earth. Thus, Botrange (694 m) would have lost its status as the highest point in Belgium.
    This immediately got the engineers at the National Geographic Institute (IGN) on the scene. Their measurements resulted in 693.05m for the Weisser Stein and 964.26m for Botrange. The traffic offices breathed a sigh of relief, all was right with the world again

  • In the middle of the Bocksvenn, at the end of a footbridge, is the not-too-large boulder that gave the whole area its name.Au milieu de la Bocks-Fagne, au about d'une passerelle, see trouve le petit rocher qui a donné son nom à toute la région.
