Great view of the loop

The section of the cycle path along the Meuse in the narrow valley of the Ardennes is beautiful.

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.

The legend of the Quatre Fils Aymon is deeply intertwined with the landscape and identity of Bogny-sur-Meuse, where four rocks rise majestically from the Ardennes forest—each symbolizing one of the four brothers: Renaud, Allard, Guichard, and Richard. According to the medieval chanson de geste, the story originates in the 15th century and revolves around the rebellion of Duke Aymon's four sons against Emperor Charlemagne. The conflict begins when Renaud kills Charlemagne's nephew during a game of chess. The brothers flee on their magical horse, Bayard, which can carry the four of them at once, and seek refuge in the Ardennes forests, where they build the castle Montessor—later known as Château-Regnault, a name that lives on in Bogny today. In Bogny-sur-Meuse, this legend is tangible: on the hilltop stands a monument depicting the four brothers and their horse, Bayard, overlooking the Meuse valley. The rock formations and surrounding path provide a living backdrop to this age-old story, which is still told and celebrated today.

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.

happiness! short 90km between Charleville and Revin by bike at the top!!! 👌

The Meuse is very different from our Liège Meuse
