Beautiful lake, for walking, cycling, fishing

Beautiful pond with wooden walkways.

At this site, fed by two tributary streams of the Ton, ironworks are believed to have been carried out as early as the 15th century. Column furnaces (internationally renowned and still highly sought after today), chimney backs, and pumps were manufactured here. On some roads in the region and in the surrounding villages, you can still see sewer inspection chamber signs bearing the inscription "Ateliers et fonderie Dominicy Châtillon" (Dominicy Châtillon Workshops and Foundry). These establishments later specialized in the manufacture of agricultural machinery. The factory enjoyed great prosperity during the interwar period. But in 1966, it was forced to close its doors permanently.

Deep in the Etalle forest, the Fourneau Marchant fishery will allow the whole family to learn how to fish. For children under 10, it's free, and pond fishing is ideal for our little beginners. 15 euros for a half-day. Different species of trout are available, including rainbow trout, native to our beautiful Gaume region. Feeling peckish? Don't hesitate to taste these trout at the restaurant on the terrace overlooking the ponds. https://www.facebook.com/pecheriefourneaumarchand/?locale=fr_FR
