I am a pure product of the Ardennes, 50%  from the Belgian Ardennes and 50% made in the French Ardennes, so the Ardennes are literally a part of me. I have been roaming the Ardennes for as long as I can remember and the more I discovered the area, the more I fell under its spell. I have fallen head over heels in love with its enchanting forests and fascinating legends.  Moreover, the Ardennes is home to welcoming and warm inhabitants, who have at heart to keep their rich culture and traditions alive. This is my Ardennes and this is the Ardennes I want to share with you…

MY expEriences

The Ardennes boasts incredible heritage and historical treasures. Land of stunning castles and all kinds of legends, inhabited by fantastical creatures such as fairies, gnomes and warlocks, and the scene of many great battles, the Ardennes truly is the ideal spot to discover bygone days. In the Ardennes history is at your fingertips, it really is the perfect for  travelling back in time and diving into the past!

MY FIRM FAVOURITES

What I really love about the Ardennes, is the lush nature that has so many lovely surprises in store. As centuries went by, different tribes and people settled on these lands, and the vestiges of their culture vanished, sometimes only to reappear centuries later, testimonies of a fascinating history you can discover all over the Ardennes.
