Description

Along one of the most popular and recognized trekking routes in Europe, I would like to help you see the beauty of the Ardennes, from Houffalize to La Roche.

Spanning approximately 39 km, during this 3 day hiking adventure, you will get to see a long list of fantastic Belgian highlights. You will get to immerse yourself in nature and gaze at breathtaking landscape. And in the evenings you will get to rest and relax in a comfortable 3 star hotel.

On this independent trip, you will be provided with all of the navigational tools necessary to follow the amazing path that will take you from Houffalize to La Roche.

On the first day of hiking, you will trek from Houffalize to Nadrin. During this hike you will get to trek through a forest and walk through the Nabiselle valley. You will then pass the village of Bonnerue and see the Nisramont Dam before reaching Nadrin, where you will spend the night.

On the following day, you will make your way to the village of Berismenil. You will then hike down to the hamlet of Maboge and on to Borzee. Afterwards, you will continue on through the valley to La Roche, which you can explore and enjoy. You can then return to Houffalize if you wish.

The trekking route from Houffalize to La Roche is recognized by Europe’s leading quality trails, and the reputation is well deserved. It is a fantastic route, and I have no doubt you will have a great time hiking on it. If you wish to enjoy it, just send me a request.

I also offer a 3 day hike through the Ourthe valley as well.

Very nice trip. The via ferrate was not very difficult. We could finish it in about 1hour and a half. The remaining time we did another (small, slightly more difficult) via ferrata and some climbing. Great guide.

Pont-à-Lesse via ferrata is gorgeous, and Willy is the best guide one can wish for: very knowledgeable and calm. This was my very first ferrata, and Willy helped me feel and be safe. Many thanks!

Such a great way to experience climbing in another country/area! Ivan was my climbing guide and he was super knowledgable and supportive. We went through warm ups, stretches, and best falling practices before we began. I'm an intermediate climber and I learned a lot and felt very safe! He even showed me exercises that could help improve my technique. I'm super grateful I booked through explore-share and plan to do so again when I'm traveling!

We had a great day with Leo. He drove us to a spot with many problems from easy to hard. He was super supportive and positive and gave excellent coaching and climbing advice. He didn't just give beta but really worked with us on the subtle techniques necessary at Fontainebleau.

Petit couac pendant l'organisation, mais tout est rentré dans l'ordre et c'est très bien passé au final
