モンテルメの天然記念物・トップ18

For people with little hiking experience, this is a difficult hike.

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.

A short, steep descent. Difficult in wet weather.

The legendary site of one of the most famous legends of the Ardennes. The site of Dames de Meuse has inspired many artists with its magnificent landscapes. George Sand, Théophile Gauthier and Michelet were all impressed in their descriptions by the dark forest that covers most of the site. According to legend, this place is the grandiose testimony to the punished adultery of the Dames de Meuse.

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

La Table des Fées, located in the Semois natural park, is an impressive rock pedestal. Naturally formed, this structure evokes a giant table surrounded by local legends: it was used for the antics of fairies, chased from the Hultai hill in Auby.
