Houffalize Red Route 3

Highlight • Trail

The red fixed route is fun and easy, but if you want more challenging parts, you should make your own route. You have to find the beautiful pieces yourself.

Rock Garden Trail (Parc naturel des deux Ourthes)

Highlight • Trail

There are 2 places to go, the easiest, to be guided by the fault in the rock, and especially not to touch the front brake. Then you have to have confidence in yourself and your bike

Very tough, dangerous and technical ride with trial and error. Anyone who drives this ride without a motor is a professional
