The Rochers de Freyr are the biggest and the most important climbing massif in Belgium, and they are also an exceptional site to visit, on the banks of the Meuse River. On this day hike you will discover fascinating landscapes between Meuse and Lesse, in the Wallonia Region, near Dinant.

The first part of the route takes us to the Rochers de Freyr, enjoying amazing views over the Meuse valley. Then, after passing by the village of Falmignoul, we will descend on the picturesque Lesse valley passing by the Aiguilles de Chaleux.

Hiking Guide

I have always been passionate about nature and discovering new places. My first hikes took me through the Alps, the Pyrenees and the landscapes of Corsica. I traveled the Highland trails in Scotland, Norway fjords and volcanic landscapes of Iceland. In the 2000s, I also moved towards mountaineering, that I practice as an amateur in the Belgian Alpine Club. In recent years, I have also been practicing ultra-trail running, an activity that allowed me to acquire some physical skills and gradually rethink my conception of hiking. Now, I'm moving towards a more "fast and light" concept: I take pleasure in linking up the kilometers and the height difference by traveling light in demanding environments.

In 2015, I decided to become a sports instructor so I could share my passion. I graduated as a Sports Hiking Instructor at the ADEPS/ Belgian Alpine Club. I am currently pursuing my training in order to obtain the equivalent of Accompagnateur en Moyenne Montagne (AMM) (French diploma). In my professional life, I am also an Industrial Engineer and I work as a Prevention Consultant in a company.

My values are: Have fun, discover, share, learn ... safe!
