It is a panoramic viewpoint which overlooks the Hérou Felsen and the Ourthe. It is named after François Rémy, French doctor, former director of UNICEF for the Middle East and North Africa. He was also a hiker and explorer passionate about the Ardennes region. He discovered this viewpoint in 1977 and was amazed by its beauty. He wrote in his diary: "I have never seen such a splendid view of the Ardennes. It is like a painting of nature, with the rocks, the river, the forest and the sky. It is a place of peace and harmony, where we feel the presence of God". What do you think ? Do you agree ?
