マンヘイの滝・トップ6

湖畔の道は良い気象条件でのみ走行可能です

At approximately 37 meters, the summit of the Homalius Rock, better known as the Falize Rock or Anticline, is literally the highest point in Durbuy. It has been a highlight for many visitors for years, thanks in part to the surroundings and beautiful water features. The rock is somewhat older than the average visitor. It's said to be more than 300 million years old. However, the rock layers are much older: around 375 million years old. The name Anticline comes from the geological phenomenon known as an anticline. It's the opposite of a syncline. While the former is a fold formed over many years, with the innermost layers being the oldest and the folds running downwards, synclines have folds running downwards. Such folds can form for various reasons and range from very small to large, as seen here. Originally, everything was, of course, horizontal. The inverted U-shape created by uplift in Durbuy is not only beautiful to see but also special. And Durbuy has beautifully highlighted this. Another beautiful anticline can be found in Han-sur-Lesse, also in the Famenne-Ardenne region, albeit in the province of Namur (here we are in Luxembourg), where it has been given the name "Tête de bouc" (Tête de bouc). There's a waterfall and a large water feature at the end of the expansive pond in front of the rock, which you can also climb. And there's plenty of room to admire it all. Don't forget the many smaller works of art and curiosities, and take a look in the water.

Very cozy place to linger.

Beautiful walking here. The waterfalls follow each other quickly.

The Gold Mine Waterfall is a waterfall located in the Chefnâ Valley, near Stoumont. You will be amazed by the golden hues of the rocks that gave the waterfall its name. The site was once a gold mine where prospectors searched for nuggets in the river sand. You can learn more about the geological history of the area from an information panel located at the rest area. The climb to the waterfall is steep and challenging, but rewarding. You will enjoy the views of the forest, the river, and the waterfall.

The end of the last century was a golden age on the edge of the Ambleve. Some adventurers used the gold pan and the "sluice" or searched the sand and gravel of the river, like the American gold prospectors. The so-called auriferous region stretches from Faymonville (Malmedy region) to the Plateau des Tailles (near Baraque de Fraiture). Small artificial mounds of earth (between 1 and 5 meters high) along the Chefna stream bear witness to this. This small valley was a site of gold nugget mining in pre-Roman times and again from the 19th to the early 20th centuries. Source: "Vallon de la Chefna" information board at the rest area
