Bogny-Sur-Meuse (Four Sons of Aymon )

Nature has sketched out four slopes in Bogny-sur-Meuse that could resemble the never-ending ride of the four legendary knights.

À Bogny-sur-Meuse

A - 4 sons Aymon


The Ardenne is dotted with real or imaginary traces of the four rebellious brothers. What does it matter if the Geste took place in Montauban, Dinant or Bogny-sur-Meuse, the forest of the Ardenne was in fact to be their only refuge. In Bogny, the rocky ridge, set in stone, evokes the speed of the four brothers, fleeing the anger of Charlemagne. This outstanding site is accessible via a path through the wood leading to a panorama dominated by the statue of the four brothers, sought throughout Europe by Charlemagne’s army.

Enter the legend

From the site of the Four Sons of Aymon, a discovery trail runs along the ridges. Allow one hour to complete the loop.

B - The Hermitage Rock


The sorcerer Maugis was never very far from the Four Sons of Aymon. They built their landmark, Regnault Castle, on a rock spur. Opposite, the Hermitage Rock is said to have sheltered the hermit Maugis. It is guarded by the statue of the knight Dardennor which stands four metres high.
