This 7 km hike follows an iconic route through the Ourthe Valley, with a gentle start along the river, followed by a steady climb to the heights of Marcourt. The trail combines heritage sites, forests, and varied terrain, with highlights including the discovery of the miraculous spring, the Saint-Thibaut chapel, and the hermitage .

The starting point is in Jupille , before crossing the Ourthe via a small bridge.
The route then follows the river towards Marcourt , along a pleasant section at the bottom of the valley.
Jupille : Starting village of the loop, located on the banks of the Ourthe.
The Ourthe : River crossed at the beginning of the route, then followed along until Marcourt.

Miraculous Source de Saint-Thibaut : Symbolic place located on the path leading to the chapel.
Saint-Thibaut Chapel : An important heritage site before arriving at the hermitage.
