At this point the dense forest thins out a little and you can enjoy a great view of the Étang de Virelles lake. The Aquascope Virelles is located on the southern shore. In the nature center you can learn a lot about the lake and its animal inhabitants, explore an educational trail, climb up to the raised seats and enjoy a snack in the café with a panoramic terrace. There is also a large playground for children.

You can find more information about the Aquascope at belgien-tourismus-wallonie.de/de/content/das-aquascope-virelles-der-natur-auf-der-spur.

Hiking

Via a short but tiring slope you reach a viewpoint on Lake Virelles, where you also have the Aquascope. Opposite the bench on the blue walking trail you can continue a few meters in the direction of the lake. There you have the best view, which is also marked on the map as a viewpoint.
