The Natural Parks of Wallonia represent 33% of the Walloon territory, comprising 71 municipalities spread throughout Wallonia. These are areas with a distinctive landscape identity, offering visitors a rich and unspoiled natural environment. As places of rejuvenation and home to numerous walking trails, the Natural Parks now welcome passionate hikers with 36 new loops gathered in 2 topo-guides.
The topo-guides of «Randonnées en Boucle® » (the RB®) offer a format suited to enthusiasts who enjoy day trips of around twenty kilometres, complemented by variants allowing everyone to tailor their route. These walks are based on the GR® or GR®P trails well known to long-distance hikers. Each province offers a topo-guide featuring 16 RB, some of which double the existing offering of walking discoveries.
The twelve Natural Parks of Wallonia invite you in turn to explore on foot... Spread across two volumes, 36 RB® will allow you to discover these rural areas and their many facets, to admire without limit the landscapes that unfold before you, this unspoiled nature, breathtaking panoramas, typical villages and hamlets, the richness of local produce, their heritage, ...
The second volume brings together the 18 RB that journey through the Natural Parks of the provinces of Liège and Hainaut.
