Icon description route Description

This route is signposted in one direction.

Start your walk at the old Bourcy station. This route leads you to the Wiltz valley, the only place in the municipality of Bastogne where cranberry bushes thrive. This rare shrub from the blueberry family is unique in the Ardennes.

In the valley, you will also find water clover, marsh violets, and orchids.

Following the road towards the village of Moinet, you will reach a nature reserve where it is not uncommon to spot the black stork hunting or flying.
