The Tombeau du Géant is a hill formed by a meander of the Semois River. The hill is located on the left bank of the Semois, a few kilometers downstream from Bouillon. The Tombeau du Géant, a listed Natural Monument, is one of the most famous and most photographed locations in the Belgian Ardennes and the Semois Valley. The most popular viewpoint is near the village of Botassart, about 450 meters as the crow flies from the Semois and about 140 meters above the river. It offers a view of the river's meander around a well-preserved wooded hill that ends at an altitude of 250 meters. (Wikipedia)

The first observation tower on the Côte d’Auclin dates back to 1923. A new structure was inaugurated in 2001. The tower stands on a 150m³ concrete base. It has eight floors supported by four wooden pillars surrounded by iron, with a total height of 31.60 m (385 m altitude, or 180 m above the Semois). (InspiRoute)

Easy-to-walk path over Le tombeau du chevalier. Some rocks here and there, and occasional stones on the path.

The medieval ruins of Herbeumont Castle, perched on a rocky ridge overlooking the village and the Semois River, offer many remarkable views of the meandering river. The fortress's foundation stones were laid in 1268 by Jehan de Rochefort, son of the House of Walcourt. Over the centuries, the castle was inhabited by various families: the House of Orgeo, the House of la Marck-Rochefort, the House of Stolberg, and the House of Löwestein. The natural steepness of the mountain made the castle inaccessible from three sides for a long time. In the 15th century, Herbeumont's walls were reinforced with a sturdy round tower at each southern end. Unfortunately, this did not prevent the castle from being destroyed by French troops on August 21, 1657. (Visit Wallonia)

When we were there (early June) the view was largely obstructed by the bushes… a shame, but it remains a beautiful spot.
