The Hoëgne, the main tributary of the Weser, is the best-known of the rivers that emerged on the High Fens plateau. It receives its first tributaries at an altitude of 660 m, near the Baraque Michel. In the past centuries, this river was the scene of an important iron ore mining activity, which made the reputation of the Margraviate of Franchimont, to which the Sart area was annexed.
