Promenade de la Lesse

LA ROCHE AUX CHEVAUX

In Redu, this rocky ridge overlooks the confluence of the Our and Lesse rivers in a wild setting. According to tradition, old and useless horses were thrown off this rock and tossed backwards into the vacuum. In fact, it was the corpses of dead horses, not the living ones, that were discarded and left to the greed of the biters.

LES RAPIDES DE LA LESSE

Between Maissin and Daverdisse, the Lesse leaves its rural route for a lonely, wooded, secret gorge, where its tumultuous waters slosh over rocks, creating rapids and waterfalls.

A roar in winter, a whisper in summer, permanently envelops these wild places.

This signposted walk is listed on the Libin hiking map, available for 8€ from the Maison du Tourisme de la Forêt de Saint-Hubert, from the Libin Tourist Office and from the Libin municipality.
