The Transfamenne

3 days of walking to discover this magnificent region located in the north of the Ardennes.

The Famenne is one of the most beautiful regions in Belgium for hiking. Situated on the borders of the Condroz plateau and the Ardenne, the Famenne offers a varied landscape where the Ourthe (which has its source in the Ardennes) and the Lesse have dug their beds. Europ’Aventure proposes you to discover this region thanks to this 3-day stay on a marked out itinerary designed by our partner GTA.

From the small village of Nassogne you travel 57 km in 3 days and discover Marche-en-Famenne, Verdenne or Hotton before arriving at the medieval city of La Roche-en-Ardenne.

The Transfamenne can also be combined with the first steps of the Transardennaise to create a 6-step loop. It is the ideal solution for a short walking holiday without too many gradients: marked trail (yellow/white), quality accommodation, luggage transport, guidance application and information about the region. Everything is planned so that you can make the most of the region and its beauties.

Hiking in freedom – Variable duration from 3 to 4 days – Departure all year round according to your availability and your possibilities.
