Forge Le Chastelin Ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

The subsoil of this region contained a lot of iron ore.
These remains are the remains of the foundation walls of an old forge and a corresponding oven (1480-1609). First mentioned in January 1480, this place was called Forge Le Chastelin and later Forge Racket.

At this point is the entrance to an old slate tunnel. Slate and hard coal have been mined at the same site since 1773. In 1868 the "Société forestière du Gospinal" received the concession to mine slate here. The roofing of the Solwaster church is made of this slate.
Unfortunately, the quality of the slate turned out to be not particularly good, so the production was stopped again. In addition, the tunnel was flooded regularly.

Nutons Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

This cascade is formed by a more pronounced difference in height of the Statte, which faces a cluster of quartzite rocks. This cluster is called "Moyen Pierrier de la Statte".

Waterfalls on the Sawe

Highlight • Waterfall

Here the Sawe comes along as a true mountain stream. When the Sawe has a lot of water, as it does now, after the numerous rainfalls in recent weeks, a wonderful sight!

Sawe Valley

Highlight • Waterfall

A very beautiful valley reminiscent of the Ninglinspo and especially Chefna torrents, with the mighty blocks of quartzite in the Sawe riverbed. A previously little frequented valley with great paths.

Today we were out and about in the Ardennes with our Belgian neighbors. It was uphill and downhill on rooty and rocky paths along the Hoege and Sawe rivers. 🚶‍➡️🚶‍♀️‍➡️🥾

Probably my best walk ever.
Magnificent.

Hello everyone,

This tour is a combination of my Hoenge and Sawe-Statte tours, so it's a bit longer at just under 18 km.

This means that you'll probably use more than 20 bridges in total to cross the three rivers. It's mostly along narrow paths, always along a truly natural landscape. Depending on the season, there's more or less water, …
