Beautiful view of the Ourthe valley in La Roche towards Hotton from Corumont .
From here one speaks of the lower Ourthe.
The upper Ourthe is the part between Nisramont, where the western and eastern Ourthe meet, up to La Roche.
The lower Ourthe still flows via Hotton and Durbuy to the Meuse in Liège and in between takes the Amblève and the Vesder with it.
This path used to be used by the inhabitants of Harzé to transport their dead to the cemetery of Bérismenil, so as not to have to pay the tax on the road via La Roche.
This road connected the Roman road through Beausaint to La Roche. On the hill opposite the Ourthe is King Pepin's chair, from which he judged or rested after long hunting trips.
A legend tells that a girl who wants to get married has to go around the stone 3 times on the same day. One day, a young unbelieving girl goes around the stone 9 times . She was called the woman with the three men . Due to the construction of the road of le Chalet, the stone has disappeared , only a children's song is left that is still sung today.
The place was used during the war by the Germans for anti- aircraft defense against the Allied bombers.
Today the site is used by many hikers for the beautiful view over the valley of La Roche, MTB'ers and paragliders because of the good starting location. Corumont comes from "Côrir" which means hazel, and "mont" means mountain, so mountain of the hazel trees.
