North of Celles, head to Hostellerie Gilain for a truly indulgent experience! Awarded a Michelin star, this luxurious restaurant welcomes you to its refined interior, by its open fireplace, in its veranda, or near the bar… Alain Gilain offers several menus featuring local products: small grey snails from Namur, guinea fowl from the Bocage region … He also offers a “Young Gastronomes” menu to introduce children to fine dining.

Near Celles lies the Furfooz Nature Reserve. Created by the Ardenne & Gaume association in 1948, it boasts a rich history in addition to its natural and geological heritage. It contains 14 remarkable features. These include caves that sheltered our distant ancestors: the Trou des Nuton, the Trou du Grand Duc, and others. Some of these serve as roosts for bats! There is also a reconstruction of authentic Roman baths from the 3rd century BC. These are fully functional and are sometimes used for special events. You'll find several magnificent viewpoints along the walk, notably the panorama from the Trou du Grand Duc.
