Brandehaag is a crossroads where there is the possibility of continuing towards Hilltal, Noir Flohay or Fagne des Deux-Séries.

The Brandehaag is a forest reserve in the Helle valley. If you come from Noir Flohay there is a sign at the entrance stating that it is a Natura 2000 site, followed by the name Brandehaag - Bongard and then the statement that you are entering a forest reserve here. The Grand Bongard is a tributary of the Helle, which also gives the name of the forest reserve. It is a very varied forest including beech, oak and maple. And it is an area that is extremely rich in mosses. Dead trees are also left as normal to allow for a rich flora and fauna.
