    The Bayart rock forms a prime promontory for admiring the bends of the Meuse and the village of Monthermé.

        The Roche Bayart is a striking rock formation in the French Ardennes, closely linked to the legend of the Four Sons of Aymon. According to the medieval story, the magical horse Bayard, carrying the four brothers on his back, leaped over the rock, creating a cleft in the stone with a single hoofstroke. The rock is located near the monument to the Four Sons of Aymon and, together with the surrounding peaks, forms a symbolic tribute to these heroes of Carolingian epic. The area is accessible via a hiking trail that leads visitors past the rocks and through the forest, offering panoramic views of the Meuse Valley.
