De Libramont à Bouillon (stage 5)
On the minor roads of the Ardennes
Medium
37 km
Along this final stage you leave Libramont, a small provincial town where life is good, to unwind in the heart of the Ardennes. Quaint villages with old shale and sandstone farms are dotted all along the way and from time to time, the smell of salted foods and Ardennes game will make your mouth water.
As you go through Offagne and Fays-les-Veneurs, you enter Paliseul, a haven of peace renowned for its local products, which invites you to make a gourmet stop.
The route becomes ever more mysterious. Nollevaux, Bellevaux and Noirefontaine herald your imminent arrival in the sumptuous Semois valley. The almost mountainous massif on the approach to Bouillon is sure to provide you with a change of scenery.
Suddenly, you plunge down towards the valley and before you appears the 10th-century feudal castle, the jewel of the old ducal city of Bouillon. This brings you to the end of this fantastic ride.
