レグリーズのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

I had understood that it concerns the largest beech forest in Belgium. But it is phenomenally beautiful. On my last walk of almost 12 km I did not encounter any hikers. In September-October it is difficult to hear the deer's roaring. But actually every season has its highlights.

Very nice hike, quite a few passages in the forest and undergrowth, there is a small section which passes not very far from the highway so quite noisy at this time, otherwise very refreshing and calming, makes you want to discover more of the region

Magnificent walk

The Etang des Forges Basses is a pond that was dug to supply water to the steam locomotives of the Brussels-Luxembourg line, but today it is a beautiful place to walk and enjoy nature.

The Mellier forges are a historic site in Belgium which highlights the industrial heritage of the region. They were built in 1617 by François de Gorzée and Pierre Goens, who wanted to exploit the region's natural resources: water, wood and iron ore. Forges produced high-quality metal products until the early 19th century, when they could not compete with new technologies in the coal and coke industries. The site was then used as a sawmill until the 20th century, when it was abandoned and left to fall into disrepair. Today, the Mellier forges are a protected monument and part of Wallonia's exceptional heritage. You can visit the remains of the buildings, such as the coal hall, lime kilns, dam bridge and ore hall, and learn about the history and techniques of the metalworkers. The site is also surrounded by a beautiful forest, where you can hike along the Mellier River.

The pond was built to supply water to the steam locomotives at Marbehan station and today is a protected habitat for various birds and plants, as part of the Natura 2000 network. You can observe impressive birds near the pond, such as the white egret and the gray heron.

Along this trail, you will have the pleasure of walking on a path that twists and turns through the forest of trees that will enchant you.

The Rulles Forest is a large forest massif in the province of Luxembourg, Belgium, with an area of approximately 6,000 hectares. It is part of the Haute-Sûre Forêt d'Anlier natural park, which is a protected area of high ecological value. The forest is mainly made up of beech, oak and spruce, and is home to a rich biodiversity of plants and animals. There we find in particular the royal osmonda, a rare fern, the European wildcat, the black stork and the wood grouse.
