Description
This hiking trail starts in Herbeumont and quickly takes you over the Conques Viaduct, which consists of 7 arches, is 40 meters high and 120 meters long. It was built by the Germans during World War I and spans the Semois, an impressive example of engineering. Atop the viaduct, you have a beautiful view of the meandering Semois.
You follow the bank of the beautiful Semois for a few kilometers. You walk on very quiet paths and feel far away from the inhabited world. A strenuous hike, but definitely worth the effort.
