Description
This nearly 40 km bike ride through the Calestienne and along the Ourthe requires quite some effort! But you will be rewarded with beautiful landscapes and villages.
From the RIVEO center, dedicated to the fauna and flora in running water, you set off to explore the Calestienne region, between the Ardennes and the Famenne.
You will ride through Wéris, one of the Most Beautiful Villages of Wallonia, and then towards Barvaux through hilly landscapes. Between Barvaux and Durbuy, the smallest city in the world, you will enjoy the charming RAVeL along the Ourthe, which has recently been refurbished.

Monday, October 9, 2023 by P.P.Nice route with variety: nice climbs, stretches of dirt road while passing through rolling fields and then along the ourthe until Durbuy. Pay attention to the bridge in Barvaux: there are only stairs, no incline, not ideal for heavy electric bikes. You best take the car bridge there and then continue the route along ourthe.
