(Copper) beech avenue

Highlight (Segment) • Natural

On the way to the hornbeam avenue (La charmille du Haut-Marais) you first pass a very beautiful beech avenue, which consists of many copper beeches. There are two benches (plastic) at the side of the path, which are dirty and placed in the shade. The overall conditions here do not encourage you to linger.

Haut-Maret Hornbeam Avenue

Highlight (Segment) • Natural Monument

The hornbeam avenue was planted in 1885 by the owner of the Haut-Marais estate. He had the hornbeams planted between the hamlet of Vertbuisson and the Haut-Marais to offer the wealthiest visitors staying in the countryside a walk sheltered from the sun's rays. Although the avenue is now only 573 metres long, it was once twice as long.

La Chefna

Highlight • River

The Chefna used to be called "ru de Forchon" and today it is called Chefna. The stream symbolizes the border between the villages of Aywaille and Stoumont and formerly between the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and the Principality of Stavelot-Malmedy. It also symbolizes the southern border of the Porallée.

Pansîre Peat Bog

Highlight • Natural

One of the last peat bogs that once formed the open landscape of this plateau. The subsoil is composed of acidic rocks of revinia, quartzites and black phyllades.
The area is dominated by groups of peatlands, but there are also rushes with Juncus acutiflorus (Juncion acutiflori), sedge meadows with Carex rostrata (Caricetum rostrato-vesicariae), some peatlands with Narthecium ossifragum, remains of exploited and more or less dry peatlands, thickets of Salix aurita and downy birch forests.
This peatland has been studied several times at the botanical and phytosociological level, in particular by FROMENT.
