Wandelroutes in de Belgische Ardennen
De Belgische Ardennen strekken zich uit over de provincies Namen, Luik en Luxemburg, en een stukje van de provincie Henegouwen. Hier vind je dus volop mogelijkheden om te wandelen! In het bos, door de velden of de stad, langs het water of over rotsachtige bergkammen… Er is voor iedereen een wandeling!
Purnode- Vallée du Bocq - Purnode





The secret valley... Valleys, ridges and forests lead us to a land rich in heritage and history. From the village of Purnode, the walk leads to one of the most beautiful rivers in the country: the Bocq.
In the undergrowth, the path is made up of a grey and black sandstone jigsaw puzzle: no doubt one of the old byways that linked the villages and united their inhabitants. Further on, this same path enters a forest of pines and beeches. In the half-light, it makes superb arabesques. It ends at the foot of the Bocq. Short-term happiness as we walk along the river, offering a relative freshness of air. Above us, from viaducts to tunnels, runs the old railway line which is now used by the Chemin de fer du Bocq, a tourist train.
The Bocq valley has been transformed from an industrial valley into a beautiful green landscape.
