Top Things to do in The Ardennes
The 5 Best Geologic Formations in The Ardennes, Wallonia
A smorgasbord of flavors come from this lofty land in the hilly southeast of Belgium: game, wild boar, venison, smoked ham, the region's famous paté and world-renowned Trappist beers. Primarily located in Belgium, the Ardennes mountains also nudge into France and Luxembourg. Dense forests flank the steep hillsides, and market towns and villages perch on river banks. Spring and summer show this lush area at its best, but cross country skiing opportunities make a good case for winter visits.

The famous landmark was the first thing we saw when walking from Anseremme to Dinant. It’s a splendid split rock formation about 40 metres high. It’s associated with the ancient Ardennes legend which said that the split was made by the horse Bayard carrying the four Aymon sons who were fleeing the Emperor Charles. As the horse climbed the rocky ridge its hooves split the rock in two. In fact Louis X1V'’s soldiers separated the rock to build an easy road next to the Meuse. Great Legend. A must see.
