Wild countryside from the calestienne to the ardenne

If you’re an adventurer, the untamed Calestienne is a surprising discovery with its Viroin-Hermeton nature park, chalk grasslands and famous chasms like the Fondry des Chiens, its wild orchids and the elegant song of its song thrush. Moored along the bucolic Viroin valley, traditional villages lie in enchanting landscapes in the peace and quiet of a fertile countryside. Along this node way, museums, archaeological sites and remains await you at Treignes, the village of museums.
