More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step down from an air-conditioned minivan and the ground seems to hold names—mounds, cemeteries and farmhouses that remember gunpowder and orders. The Lion’s Mound rises out of open farmland; nearby, grave markers align like a quiet grid. On day two the landscape flattens into the Flanders plain where low ridges and interrupted canals speak to trench warfare; on the third day the Meuse threads through Dinant, lifting the gaze to a citadel and onion-domed church.
