말메디 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

These quarries have been exploited since the 19th century for the extraction of bluestone and other hard rocks typical of the Ardennes. The stone was used in road construction, railways, and other building projects in the region. After most mining ceased, nature has largely reclaimed the sites. Today, the former Warche quarries form a nature reserve with steep rock faces, ponds, and unique flora, home to birds of prey, bats, and rare plants. The site is located in a picturesque part of the Warche Valley and is popular with hikers, geologists, and nature lovers thanks to its combination of industrial history and rugged natural beauty.

Nice climb up, not steep (personal opinion...)

Quarry, great to see how the stones are mined

Resting place with beautiful view of the valley and over it. This period (spring) the opposite valley side was colored yellow by the flowering broom.

Rock point on the hill path with a beautiful view of the valley and over it. That famous nose of Napoleon you come across more often in the Ardennes as a name for rock points.

Ideal place to relax after your walk.

Great restaurant on the campsite. There is a very extensive beer selection as well as snacks and a good menu.

A difficult path not easy. You should always be careful when hiking and it is better to go in pairs in case something happens
