In the heart of the Ardennes, surrounded by lush forests, picturesque villages and bucolic valleys, the ‘Rendeux & its villages’ circuit invites everyone to take the time to (re)discover the region by bike, in complete serenity. Designed to be accessible to as many people as possible, this 20.7 km route, mostly on tarmac, takes in peaceful sections of the RAVeL, the node network and a few quiet country lanes.
The accessible ‘Rendeux & its villages’ circuit is a rural route that starts at the Marcourt Tourist Office. This route passes through the villages of Marcourt, Ronzon, Rendeux, Hampteau & Werpin (in the municipality of Hotton) as well as Trinal, Magoster and Devantave.
The route also uses three very pleasant sections of the RAVeL, not far from the Ourthe :
One at the exit of Marcourt ;
One at the entrance to Ronzon towards Rendeux ;
One at the exit of Rendeux towards Hampteau.
Practical information :
This circuit runs partly on the RAVeL and partly on public roads. Given the very hilly topography of the region, this circuit is quite challenging and requires good physical condition and/or an electric bike.
During your ride, you can enjoy some beautiful views of the region. You will be impressed by the statue of the Virgin Mary overlooking the village of Werpin (7 metres high and 11.30 metres with its base).
The Tourist Office is also a good place to stop for a drink or a bowl of soup (small room available for groups).
