Icon description route Description

The morning dew covers flowers and berries – up here at almost 550 metres, you can get a better feel for the chill of morning. The descent to the Warche opens your view out on to a beautiful, flat pasture landscape.
A little beach at the edge of the river invites you to stop and take a short break. In this silence it seems that the echoes of the ceasefire can still be heard: the point at which you cross the Warche here is also the entrance to the Elsenborn military base, the scene of such dire combat during the Ardennes Offensive in 1944.
The US Army succeeded in stopping the German attack. Green hedges beautify the trail, which winds its way along the ridge. At the end of our hike we reach the Warche one last time, as it ripples along between tall grasses and hay meadows.

Friday, June 5, 2026 by Stijn De LangheA nice variety of trails. Impossible to navigate without the Knooppunten app, since there are virtually no signs anywhere.

Tuesday, August 19, 2025 by G.C.We've been walking around Robertville for 10 years... and we'd never been there before: a wonderful discovery! We did a variation: Ravel from point 33 to Outrewarche. This hike is best done in dry weather (some passages with small paths and/or roots).

Tuesday, March 11, 2025 by B.B.This hike, mapped out by the tourist office of the East Cantons, takes you through fields and pine forests where you will get under your feet almost every kind of path ; the name of the hike is particularly well chosen, because besides several birds of prey, we could even spot 4 deer ; a must for nature lovers, even in foggy weather !
