Walking through the land of Herve
The land of Herve is also known as the ‘Tuscany of Belgium’. You can walk through the hilly landscape north of Liège. This Wallonia region is still relatively undiscovered by tourists. You can walk endlessly without seeing another person. In the villages there is a peace and serenity which is reminiscent with the Italian counterpart.
Swinging doors and hedgerows
In the land of Herve you can walk through the landscape itself. Through swinging doors you go from one area to another. By orchards and meadows, hedgerows and woods. There are paved paths available. The most fun thing about this area is the countryside feeling and the authentic villages along the way. Although the land of Herve is suitable for every type of hiker, good walking shoes are a must!
Abbey and culinary
Make sure that you pay the Abbey of Val-Dieu a visit during your trip. The buildings date back to the 17th century and often offers theme exhibitions that give a good picture of the religious life in this region. Beautiful walks are available starting from the ‘three country point’, where the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany touch. The town of Herve is perfect for a culinary break. The ‘Escape des Saveurs’ is a tour that guides you through the local delicacies and local produce.
