This cross stands on a knoll in the village of Laforêt in a sharp bend on rue Sainte-Agathe. There is a picnic area across the street.
Laforêt is a thousand-year-old village, known as one of the most beautiful villages in Wallonia. It is more than worth a visit.
Two troughs, large round basins encircled with iron, seem to stand sentry at the ends of the village dotted with tobacco drying sheds. The lower trough borders a curious covered well.
You will find a church with a remarkable colorful ceiling and a modern Way of the Cross by Jacques Vander Elst, an artist from Vresse-Sur-Semois.
An 1880s forge with a roof covered in "faisiaux": slate plinths that are too small to make ordinary slates, but require a strong framework.
Laforêt is also famous for its famous "Pont de Claies" over the Semois. At the ford of the island "Grand I", this rustic bridge consists of panels woven from hornbeam branches and placed on fragile piers in the riverbed. It is only used during the low water period, so it is rebuilt every spring and dismantled at the end of the summer. Today, walkers can pass along the right bank of the river and thus reach Vresse on foot.
To immerse yourself in the soul of the Ardennes, you can walk the Promenade des Légendes, a 2 km circuit in the forests of Laforêt. All the characters from the legendary stories of the region will be there to guide you. The beginning is given to you by the Wild Hunter, painted on the door of Pinocchio's workshop, a puppet theatre. You will meet the White Lady, the Verbouc, the Werewolf. You will meet Nutons, Witches and Fairies. Finally, Pepe Crochet will end your walk, narrated on didactic panels that mark your immersion in the strange and the dream.
Visit the spice shop with Brasserie "Le Serpolet".
Climb the viewpoint of 'le Griolou'.
Take a look inside the old washroom with fountain and drinking trough.
