35,000 m² of stone, six centuries of history, and corridors, halls and bastions as far as the eye can see: Sedan Castle is almost a city unto itself. It is by far the largest feudal castle in Europe, just across the Belgian border in the French Ardennes.

From 1424 onwards, the castle grew stone by stone from a medieval stronghold into an imposing fortress. Anyone who steps through the gate immediately understands why this structure has been leaving visitors in awe for centuries. Walls several metres thick, mighty towers, staircases leading ever deeper into the fortress: everything about Sedan is grand and massive.

Inside, a journey through 600 years of history awaits. A permanent 3,000 m² experience trail guides you through the ages with sound and imagery. Knights, sieges and princely feasts: at Sedan, you step straight into the Middle Ages — from a merciless siege to the splendour of a royal wedding and the mysterious Well of Legends deep underground.

Little wonder that the French voted the castle their favourite national monument in 2023. And if you're staying in the Ardennes, this monumental landmark is right on your doorstep. A must-see, without a doubt !

Grey limestone, roofs of black slate, and all around? Nothing but rolling fields. Mozet is one of those villages where you park the car, turn down a lane… and feel the centuries fall away.

Mozet features on the list of the Plus Beaux Villages de Wallonie — the most beautiful villages in Wallonia. Its historic village centre is officially protected, and you can feel it. This is the kind of timeless place that has barely changed in centuries.

What strikes you immediately is the harmony. No jumble of architectural styles, but a coherent ensemble of grey limestone façades beneath black slate roofs. The imposing farmsteads, built in closed squares around a central courtyard, speak of a prosperous past.

This village once revolved entirely around farming, in the days when local lords held sway. That grandeur can still be read in every stone today. And all around? Nature takes over. Meadows, copses and gentle hills shape a bucolic landscape that calls for unhurried wandering, with no destination and no rush.

Will you come and discover Mozet slowly, soon?

• Location: the village of Mozet belongs to the municipality of Gesves, in the province of Namur — a stone's throw from the city itself.

A slender, elegant bridge carries you ever higher above the treetops until, suddenly, you find yourself suspended 130 meters above the Semois River. Below, the river winds through one of its most beautiful bends, forming a distinctive “ham-shaped” curve in the landscape. Welcome to the Passerelle du Jambon, the newest and most spectacular viewpoint in the Ardennes.

Ready for one of the most breathtaking panoramas in the country? From this remarkable suspension bridge between Membre and Bohan (Vresse-sur-Semois), you can admire the elongated “Jambon” bend of the Semois, the Kelhan plain, and the protected Bohan-Membre Nature Reserve.

The thrilling sensation of controlled vertigo makes the experience even more intense—you truly feel as though you are floating above the valley. But don’t forget to appreciate the bridge itself: the Corten steel and concrete structure takes on a beautiful rust-brown hue and blends seamlessly into the surrounding landscape. A fine example of contemporary architecture that enhances nature rather than competing with it.

An Accessible Experience for Everyone

And the best news? The Passerelle du Jambon is accessible to all. A well-maintained pathway leads comfortably to the viewpoint and is suitable for visitors with reduced mobility. No strenuous climb, no technical trail—just walk and enjoy.

It is no surprise that, since its inauguration in October 2025, this unique suspension bridge has quickly become one of the most inspiring attractions in the southern Ardennes. Here, architecture and nature complement one another perfectly, time seems to stand still, and a single glance is enough to understand why the Semois Valley continues to captivate so many visitors. A must-see destination in the region!

White façades, blue rooftops, rolling green valleys all around. Nobressart is the kind of village you drive into, step out for a moment… and only realise hours later that you're still walking.

This is not just one of the most beautiful villages in Wallonia. It may well be the best-kept secret in the province of Luxembourg. Nestled in four small valleys within the municipality of Attert, the village has an almost southern charm you wouldn't quite expect in the Ardennes.

Here you'll find old farmhouses and fermettes from the 19th century, their walls covered in a light coat of white, sometimes pink or grey plaster. Together with the blue rooftops and the gently rolling green landscape, they paint a picture that seems to have drifted in straight from the hills of Lorraine.

Wandering without a destination

Nobressart was made for those who love to stroll without purpose. Two main streets branch off into small hamlets where narrow lanes wind between the houses.

Everywhere you breathe in grass, wood, and stillness. No tourist crowds, no terrace full of day-trippers. This village moves at its own pace, and invites you to do the same for a while.

When are you coming?
