Icon description route Description

Departure: free parking Place Saint Denis - Huy

We start at 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 head further into the forest and pass the Buddhist center Yeunten Ling. In the garden, there is an impressive Buddha statue and a Tibetan stupa. The temple is also definitely worth a visit.

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

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

Few rest points and no restaurants. Walking sticks are recommended. Hunting calendar in the fall: www.partageonslaforet.be.
