Le jambon de la Semois

Located between Membre and Bohan, the viewpoint “Le Jambon de la Semois” is one of the most impressive of the Ardennes.
The Semois makes a majestic bend of two kilometers in the shape of a ham. Hence the reference to this Ardennes specialty.
The slopes and the whole of the hills form the main part of the National Park of Membre-Bohan. The importance of this nature reserve of 177 hectares consists mainly in the remarkable panoramas it offers. Some natural sites : the ravine of Sautou, le Châtelet, la Cheminée, la Roche la Dame, la Table des Fées et ses Arbres fiancés : all picturesque spots.

Vresse-sur-Semois has many vantage points: Laspote Laviot in mouzaive, Le Jambon de la Semois in Bohan, La roche à Saloru and Les 8 Semois i

n Membre, Le croix and La cuve in Bohan.

Le Griolou in Laforêt is special because there is a rock there that children used to slide down ('ils griolâient').

Add to that the beautiful viewpoint of the Bois de Naglémont and there is plenty of climbing to do in this region for all these beautiful views!
