Nice place to start hiking trails

Very nice hike. Very beautiful landscapes and the trails are great.

Be careful, for the hike, the bridge that we were supposed to take to reach the Marie rock, is destroyed, so, we have to change our route. Even after the railway bridge, the bridge is no longer exciting.

On the banks of La Lomme, you will discover the rock and the mythical story of the witch Marie Gobaille. The legend of the half witch and half horse is still alive among the inhabitants of Mirwart. Every year at the beginning of spring, the witch Marie Gobaille is symbolically burned again.

Beautiful, but be careful. Bridge at this hiking highlight is broken! Cross the water at the train bridge a few hundred meters further.

This segment offers beautiful views of the Famenne. You will also walk along a historical route from the period of the 17th century witch hunt.

Here you are at a historic location of the 17th century witch hunt and trial. Historical facts: On Wednesday, April 11, 1618, an executioner from Namur burns Marie, Jeanne Il and Alix after strangling them. the execution takes place at Grupont, on Bel Air, nicknamed "a l'justice". Several men from Mirwart, Smuid, Awenne and Lesterny stand guard during the execution. An excerpt: "Today I am going to die. I am being taken to Grupont. The guards have asked the inhabitants of the village to erect the funeral pyre in the hamlet of Bel Air. ... The judges are present, as is the executioner. The guards are taking me to the pyre. The executioner is waiting for me. He's going to strangle me before burning me. He lights the fire. Soon, Marie and Alix will meet the same fate… Is Jejenne being saved because she is pregnant?”

Beautiful views over the Famenne are yours here. Enjoy it.
