You start your hike in Jodoigne, an old medieval city, whose Saint-Médard church, an architectural jewel of the city, dates back to the 12th century. You carry on in peace and quiet towards Ramillies and Eghezée, passing Hesbaye farms, chapels and ‘potales’ or niches containing a religious statue.

Eghezée, with its museum of rural life, which immerses you in the region’s main activity, offers to tickle your taste buds as you savour its famous Upignac duck foie gras. Along your way, you will pass through fields of wheat, beetroot crops, groves and typical small villages as you head towards Namur, the capital of Wallonia.
The city of Namur, the gateway to the Ardennes, is a multi-faceted place. From the Citadel, Vauban’s masterpiece, overlooking the confluence of the Sambre and Meuse rivers, to its historic centre, the art of good living is all around.
