This approximately 10km hike will allow you to discover the forest, hear the birds that inhabit it and immerse yourself in the legends of the region! Indeed, after only 1km, you will come across the Haina Stone .
Legend has it that it was an unbelieving priest whom God punished by turning him to stone. Another story claims that this stone blocks the hole leading to the center of the Earth and that sometimes the Devil lifts it to escape and then goes to rest on the Devil's Bed (another stone you can see a little further on).
Located in the municipality of Durbuy, this magnificent collection of megalithic monuments stretches for approximately 8 km and dates back 5,000 years. The menhirs, ranging in height from 2 to 2.70 meters, are erected and held upright with packing stones. Other alignments from the prehistoric period are scattered between Oppagne, Wéris, Morville, and Ozo.
