Description
In the south of the province of Namur, the sun, when warming the calcareous soil, sees a real carpet of flowers blooming... The Fondry des Chiens, a natural sinkhole, might very well remind you of the Verdon gorges in miniature.
Exceptional flora, sparkling river, impressive panorama and even a steam railway complete this lovely walk.

Friday, January 10, 2025 by L.V.Beautiful hike with lots of variety: some tough inclines, pleasant villages, forest trails, impressive views. We did this hike on 4/1/2025 and route in app completely matched what we found in the field. Experiment succeeded :-) Highly recommended!
