The Roche aux Faucons is located on the plateau des Abannets. Through the depths hollowed out in the limestone, you reach the Roche aux Faucons (the falcon rock) and the viewpoint over the village of Olloy-sur-Viroin, the Viroin valley, the wooded hills, a quarry and the railway where the "steam train of the 3 valleys" occasionally passes. In the distance, the hilly landscape of the Kalkzoom changes into the Ardennes forests.

Perfect place to watch the rattling steam train from up high. At the same time, you have a wonderful view of the beautiful wooded landscape.
