    Hiking

    Croix Ferdinand or 'Creux da Ferdianand' as it is called is a wooden cross about 3 meters high.

    On the upright hangs a triangular niche with a statue of the Virgin Mary.

    It was designed at the time by Ferdinand Legros.

    It stands at a crossroads in the Bois de la Borzeu on the old road from Liège to Stavelot and further to Luxembourg, an important road in the 18th and 19th centuries. The road reaches its highest point here - about 500 m - between the valley of the Roannay and the valley of the Amblève.

    The old, simply designed wooden cross without a body bears the dedication of the donor on the crossbeam. Unusual is the box attached to the lower part of the longitudinal beam, which houses a statue of the Mother of God.
