Icon description route Description

Departure: free parking Place Saint Denis - Huy

We start at the Sint-Jozefweg. Then we go to the cemetery of La Sarte, where Dominique Pire is buried. This Belgian Dominican received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1958.

Afterwards, we continue into the forest and pass by the Buddhist center Yeunten Ling. In the garden stands an impressive Buddha statue and a Tibetan stupa. The colorful temple is also well worth a visit.

We then make a beautiful loop through the woods. Halfway, we briefly leave the forest. Here we have a view of the high voltage lines that distribute electricity from the nuclear plant in different directions.

We continue through the forest to the bike path along the Meuse, from where we have an impressive view of the nuclear plant and its imposing cooling towers. Note: taking photos is prohibited here.

Few resting points and no gastronomy. Walking sticks are recommended. Hunting calendar in autumn: www.partageonslaforet.be.
