Very nice walk along the river. Enchanting landscapes. A bit sporty especially in wet weather. Done in two hours.

Very nice tour through the Ardennes. The last third of the route is very difficult due to heavy rain and wind throws. The route can hardly be seen in places. High shoes are recommended and you should be sure-footed. In terms of landscape, however, this piece in particular is very attractive.

Avoid in wet conditions because some passages are quite hard. Very little road.

Not suitable for strollers, toddlers and people with reduced mobility.

Very beautiful but difficult/slightly dangerous in some places. Still a beautiful walk and I will definitely do it again

Had a wonderful weekend with my sports club and ended with a nice walk in Achouffe.

Beautiful walk, with occasional intense parts. Probably because the water was so high today.

Enjoy playing clay along the Ruisseau Moulin Martin, thanks to the beavers and of course the wet weather. This bank is difficult to navigate in winter after a wet period, but very nice!
