ハーグニーの天然記念物・トップ20

The Roche Bayart is a striking rock formation in the French Ardennes, closely linked to the legend of the Four Sons of Aymon. According to the medieval story, the magical horse Bayard, carrying the four brothers on his back, leaped over the rock, creating a cleft in the stone with a single hoofstroke. The rock is located near the monument to the Four Sons of Aymon and, together with the surrounding peaks, forms a symbolic tribute to these heroes of Carolingian epic. The area is accessible via a hiking trail that leads visitors past the rocks and through the forest, offering panoramic views of the Meuse Valley.

Super nice viewpoint on protruding rocks in a serene forest. Unofficial possibility for a bivouac.

The Luve (or Ruisseau de Luve ) is a Belgian-French river in the Entre-Sambre-et-Meuse , a tributary of the Viroin and a tributary of the Meuse. Over a largely wooded course of about fifteen kilometres, it drains part of the water from the southern part of the Viroin-Hermeton nature park . Its source is in the 'Bois de Franche' south of the hamlet of Regniessart. It rises towards the north-east and crosses Oignies-en-Thiérache and passes south of Le Mesnil. Then, during a long forest route, it crosses the French-Belgian border and flows further north into the Viroin at Molhain, in France, just a few kilometres before the confluence of the latter with the Meuse.

Starting from the church of Le Mesnil, a small typical village in the municipality of Viroinval, take the route that goes down between large meadows to reach the Ardennes forest. For the record: Le Mesnil is the least populated and most picturesque village in the Viroinval region. The route runs along the stream “Deluve” before crossing it and taking a very beautiful path that follows the border between Belgium and France to reach the place called “La Folie”. This place evokes the audacity of these men who went into the forest to open an oasis of light and life. The return to the village is via a charming stone path in the forest.

It's very beautiful... but the second half is a lot of climbing and scrambling, quite tough.

The beautiful hiking trails are partly difficult for hikers because they have been destroyed by mountain bikers or induro bikes.

The Meuse is very different from our Liège Meuse
