The land of Marche - Nassogne

Nassogne has rural charm, an unspoilt natural environment, animals reared in the open air (deer, pigs...), magnificent landscapes and picturesque villages, a superb network of forest walks ... as well as the collegiate church of Saint-Monon.

Marche is rather like a city in the country as it has both the advantages of urban commodities and infrastructure (businesses, restaurants...) and an exceptional setting. Often cited for its successful urban renovation scheme (magnificently restored buildings, pedestrianised areas, tree-covered areas, benches, fountains, murals, sculptures...), Marche also has many other attractions such as the Saint-Etienne church in Waha with its stained glass windows designed by Folon, the museum of lace and the ?Fond des Vaulx' nature reserve.

The land of Haute Lesse

From its source in Ochamps to its confluence with the Meuse in Anseremme, the Lesse crosses three regions: Ardennes, Famenne and Condroz. Between Ochamps and Resteigne, the Haute-Lesse area is characterised by a steep and well-balanced landscape. Forests and the natural environment are omnipresent. The villages, with their traditional architecture, have retained the rustic charm of Ardennes' past.
In addition to the main tourist attractions such as the Euro Space Center in Transinne, the book village in Redu, local museums such as the bell museum in Tellin and the clog museum in Porcheresse, there is also a range of other simple, discreet yet worthwhile sights on offer. The Haute-Lesse: an area between Ardennes and Famenne, between schist and limestone, between tradition and modernity, where living is good.

The land of Bouillon

A symbol of the good old times, the country of Bouillon is full of the calm and serenity the visitor seeks on the Southern Ardennes plateau, which slopes towards the Semois valley on Bertrix, Bouillon and Paliseul.
A historical and legendary city, the town of Godefroid de Bouillon is full of the riches of its millennial past, with its castle remaining a remarkable witness of its strategic location in the Middle Ages.
Paliseul kept the memory of the poet Paul Verlaine and of its old historical paths leading to Liege or Saint-Hubert via the Marie Thérèse bridge.
Bertrix reminds us that we were the land of slate and that in Celtic times, the cross over the Semois river had to be militarily protected at Cugnon. It is here that we find evidence of Saint Remacle's legendary past and that, from one rock to another, walks will lead us to the sumptuous scenery of the Ardenne forest, full of sparkle and seduction.
