Icon description route Description

The route begins in Marcourt where you cross the Ourthe for the first time by way of the Marcourt Bridge, a bridge with a turbulent history. Blown up in World War II and then restored by the Germans to advance towards France.

Further along the walk, the Hermitage and Chapel of Saint Thibaut await you. This spiritual site majestically sits atop Mont Aigu, offering breathtaking views of the winding Ourthe. It is a place of miracles where, over the centuries, pilgrims took home splinters from a large cross. The rustic beauty of the chapel, intertwined with legends from times gone by, makes this a must-see.

Monday, September 28, 2026 by Peter PoelmansA beautiful walk. Please note that the bridge over the Ourthe shortly after setting out from Marcourt is currently closed (it’s being replaced). Using GPS, I found a suitable detour: the rocky path along the Ourthe, which then reconnects with the original route via the church in Jupille. It’s only a few hundred meters longer and well worth it!
