01 Region
The Semois valley
The Semois winds through the south of the Belgian Ardennes, past steep wooded slopes and picturesque villages. The area is also known as a former tobacco-growing region. From Cugnon you will find walking routes, cycle paths and viewpoints in every direction, and often you do not even need to leave the domain to enjoy nature.
