This river originates in the Hautes Fagnes, more precisely in the Fagne de Polleur. It also bears the name Polleur on its first kilometers. It receives the Statte near Solwaster, crosses the village of Polleur under the old Polleur bridge then Theux where it receives the Wayai which comes from Spa, then waters Juslenville to flow into the Vesdre at Pepinster.

Hiking

Confluence of the Hoëgne and the Vesdre. This is where almost all the water from the High Fens basin converges. When exceptionally heavy rainfall fell on the High Fens in June 2021, it led to an unprecedented flood disaster that severely affected this valley and its municipalities. Pepinster was one of the hardest hit.
