The small waterfalls of the Eau Blanche River are a hidden natural wonder in the region. These charming waterfalls are located in a picturesque and unspoilt setting, where the clear waters of the Eau Blanche meander over rocks and vegetation. The river flows through a wide, wooded landscape.

Bois de Blaimont

Highlight • Forest

Located in the Chimay region of Belgium, the Bois du Blaimont is known for its beautiful hiking trails and rich natural environment. The forest is famous for its flora and fauna and the absolute peace and quiet that prevails there.
The area is also geologically interesting; the plateau of the Bois du Blaimont consists of a layer of hard limestone, formed from ancient coral reefs about 350 million years ago, when the region was still covered by a tropical sea2. This plateau dominates the Eau Blanche valley and offers beautiful views of the surrounding area, including the Virelles pond and the village.
