Chimay

Highlight • Settlement

Chimay is located in the extreme south of Belgium on the border with France. The small town has fewer than 10,000 inhabitants, but is known far beyond the borders of Belgium. This is mainly due to the fantastic Trappist beer that is brewed here and exported all over the world.

AquaScope Virelles

Highlight • Lake

AquaScope Virelles is a nature reserve in Virelles, Belgium, known for its rich biodiversity and educational programs. The center is also an excellent place for birdwatching, both for groups and individuals, and offers unique experiences such as a night in a hut by the water or a silent excursion at dawn on the lake. AquaScope Virelles is a gateway to the new National Park Entre Sambre Et Meuse and aims to raise awareness of nature and environmental protection.
The AquaScope has a small restaurant and is therefore the ideal place before or after a walk in the area.
