How about a hike along the GR ® or GR ®P trails of Wallonia, between SNCB stops and stations? Your day would begin the moment you board the train. And you could already enjoy the landscapes passing by before arriving in the region you had decided to visit. An excellent way to make the best use of the possibilities offered by the SNCB to enjoy linear routes on our GR ® or GR ®P trails.
For eight years now, the GR ® Sentiers magazine has been putting hikes between two stations on track.
With this topo-guide, twenty 100% green itineraries have been selected, with a new feature in this volume 2: a two-day hike in each area. Twenty hikes that you can complete at your own pace, depending on your fitness level or mood, solo, with family, or with friends.
These permanent itineraries, plotted and waymarked along GR ® or GR ®P trails, invite you to bring fresh air into your daily life. They will take you on a journey to discover the heritage of Wallonia, the richness of its landscapes, its fauna and flora, its history, its architecture, its local traditions, and its people.
You will be able to soak in the colors and atmospheres of our countryside and discover some little hidden gems of the region! Each proposed route includes a map (divided into several small sections) with the trail marked out, along with its description. Hiking on GR ® trails has never been so easy.
