The Chiers Valley features several limestone hills where unique flora and fauna have developed in the region. This is the case of the Ramonette Valley, where there is also an old Maginot Line fort.

On the edge of a wooded massif, where the climate is favorable for growing wine, lies Torgny, Belgium's southernmost village. The houses here, built of yellow sandstone with Roman roof tiles, are striking, lending a Mediterranean flair. A truly beautiful sight. No wonder this place is considered one of the most beautiful villages in Wallonia.

Craft brewery located in Lamorteau. With a nice range of beers. Also the Trévires restaurant (bistronomic cuisine). Right next door, a large area full of games will delight the children. The brasserie is located right in front of Ravel. This cycle path is also part of the point node network. This is a stone's throw from the very beautiful village of Torgny, a typical Provençal style village, with its red tile roofs. One of the most beautiful villages in Wallonia. A great place to come and visit Gaume. For more info: https://www.brasseriedestrevires.be/fr

PLEASE NOTE: on this - beautiful - circuit, after the village of Alondrelle, the path as mentioned on this circuit has become impassable between the meadows. If you go further, from the entrance to the woods towards Torgny, the path is not very suitable for vehicles or even almost impassable by bike if it has rained a lot! A mountain bike is essential!

The fresco tribute to the fighters of 14-18 Behind the war memorial, the artist Éléonore Giraud created a gigantic fresco with images of the fighters, human and animal, from the 1914-1918 war. This fresco was unveiled on November 11, during the commemoration of the 1918 armistice.

The Saint-Martin de Montmédy church is the church of the Saint-Martin parish in the upper town of Montmédy. The church we see today is not the first to be built on this location. Indeed, a sanctuary surrounded by a cemetery would have been present in the upper part of Montmédy as early as the 11th century. Its origins are rather vague, but historians are certain that from 1156 there was a religious building on the site of the current church2. This monument was quite small and had a single, quite slender tower. According to several old plans of Montmédy, researchers can confirm that it occupied approximately the location between the interior pillars of the current building3. In the 18th century, when Vauban strengthened the fortifications, the rear of the church was shortened to allow the widening of the adjacent rampart. The current church was built on the foundations of a more modest church that probably dates from the 12th century.
