Discover all benefitsStarting from Vendresse and its Tourist Domain, discover part of the vast forest that extends around the village via this trail n°14. This very pleasant setting will allow you to discover 19th-century Ardennes metallurgy. At the starting sign, turn left from the Town Hall towards the Virgin Wood. Pass the Castle, take the path on the right, and continue straight for 1 km to reach the arboretum of the Virgin Wood. Then take the path to the right, and after the forest barriers, turn left and then immediately to the right. Continue straight through the woods for 850m during which you will cross two intersections. Arriving at marker number 10/14, turn right to exit the woods. You will then see in front of you the ponds of Vendresse and the farm of Morteau, which owes its name to the surrounding marshes (morte-eau). Return to Vendresse through the fields on a stretch of 1.8 km. Pass in front of the football field, then once you arrive at the departmental road, turn right to enter the village. Continue straight on "Rue Pol Bouin" for 500m, which will take you past the fortified church of Saint-Martin (on which a revolutionary inscription remains above the door of its northern facade). Return to your starting point.
