Springtime in the Ardennes is the season for walking, cycling, fishing, canoeing and kayaking, and the keen mountaineer has an exciting choice of challenges. In Winter, the Ardennes are
a fun paradise for downhill and cross country skiers, or perhaps you prefer tobogganing and snow scooter racing. Belgium is the ideal country for a day trip. A visit to any of its beautiful old towns
and cities, steeped in history, is a relaxing way to get to know the country and its history. For those people who prefer the countryside, there are parks, zoos and recreation centres.

Province of Luxembourg - the true Belgian Ardennes
The Province of Luxembourg is located in the Southeast of Belgium, bordered by the Grand Duchy of
Luxembourg to the east and by France to the south. It's the largest province in Belgium of which almost one half is covered by forests.
This country of forests is also a 'land of rivers and streams'. The Ourthe, Semois, Lesse, Sûre and Aisne rivers have carved themselves some very picturesque valleys.
Except for the main centres of Bastogne, Bouillon, Durbuy, La Roche, Marche, Saint-Hubert and Virton which are themselves only small towns, the landscape is strewn with quaint little villages.
Ferme des Bisons
Known under the generic name of "The Bison Farm", the tourist centre gives visitors the chance to learn more about this legendary animal.

Giants of Bastogne
The giants of Bastogne have been created in 1958. Trouffet, typical inhabitant of the Ardenne, is a legendary

reputation of the Ardenne ham. Their son, Tanta, is closer to the folklore of the city. You can meet the giants each year at the time of the carnival.
