The best hikes in the Ardennes with children

100% kid-friendly hikes

The Ardennes is an ideal destination for hiking enthusiasts. Along the water, in the forest, on a plateau... there's plenty of choice! However, not all walks are necessarily suitable when it comes to introducing younger children to this activity. Trails that are too long or too steep can quickly become discouraging. That's why we have selected the best hiking trails in the Belgian and French Ardennes, perfect for family adventures and discovering the beauty of our region together.

Forests, ponds, and rivers? The Provincial Domain of Mirwart will delight you! This walk, dotted with educational panels, starts near the fish farm, where the small Marsoult stream meets the Lomme. The Marsoult and the ponds it feeds will accompany you throughout the route.

The trail winds up and down the narrow valley carved by this stream, leading you to discover the educational apiary and the site of the Marsolle blast furnace.

This signposted walk can be found on the Saint-Hubert hiking map, available for €8 at the Maison du Tourisme de la Forêt de Saint-Hubert
