Lower Reaches of the Lesse

(Local Name: Descent de la Lesse) Both train and bus operate to the village of Houyet on the Lesse, the starting point of a boat trip along the scenically beautiful lower reaches of the Lesse (Descente de la Lesse). It is possible to hire canoes or take a guided boat tour along the 21km/13mi stretch through the Furfooz nature reserve, past Walzin (13th century) and Pont-à-Lesse castles back to Anseremme with its 16th century bridge Pont Saint-Jean across the river.
