🥾 Promenade de l'Eau Blanche autour de Lompret 🥾

Voici une balade de 6,6 km  qui propose une immersion dans une nature paisible 🌳🌿🐿️, où se mêlent vallées bocagères et cours d'eau. 

⛪Le départ se situe près de l'Église Saint-Nicolas, à Lompret, classé parmi les Plus Beaux Villages de Wallonie. Ce circuit permet de découvrir des paysages variés, ponctués de points d'intérêt historiques et naturels.

🌊Les vallées de l'Eau Blanche et de l'Eau Noire

Le nom de l'Eau Blanche provient de la teinte claire laissée par son lit calcaire, tandis que l'Eau Noire, toute proche, doit son nom à son fond schisteux qui donne à l'eau un aspect plus sombre. Le parcours traverse des paysages où sources et ruisseaux se croisent harmonieusement.

🏞️Un peu d'histoire : le Franc Bois

Surplombant la falaise, le lieu-dit Franc Bois témoigne d'une présence humaine ancienne 🪨, avec des silex et outils datant du paléolithique. Le circuit offre également une vue remarquable 🔭 sur les anciennes fortifications et le village de Lompret, connu pour son pont du XVIIIe siècle 🌉, ses maisons de pierre 🏡 et son patrimoine religieux.

➡️ Le parcours étape par étape

Départ : Église Saint-Nicolas ⛪, Rue Fernand Tilquin (6463 Lompret). Parking 🅿️ disponible à proximité.
1️⃣ Redescendez vers la Rue Gustave Joaris et tournez à gauche.
2️⃣ Continuez sur quelques centaines de mètres et prenez à gauche, traversant l'Eau Blanche via de petits ponts 🌉.
3️⃣ Au carrefour en T, prenez à droite ; le chemin se transforme en sentier 🥾.
4️⃣ À l'embranchement en Y, prenez à gauche.
5️⃣ À la fin du sentier, suivez la Rue des Neufs Maisons vers la gauche 🛤️.
6️⃣ Traversez la Rue Fernand Tilquin et empruntez le sentier en face 🚶.
7️⃣ Prenez le sentier sur votre gauche.
8️⃣ Continuez tout droit, en laissant les sentiers latéraux. Vous longerez l'Eau Blanche pour revenir à votre point de départ 🏁.

 

ℹ️ Informations pratiques

  • Distance : 6,6 km 🛤️
  • Dénivelé : 190 m ⬆️
  • Niveau de difficulté : Facile 😊
  • Balisage :  Losange Vert (horizontal) - voir photo
  • Durée estimée : Environ 1 h 45 🕒

🏡 Une idée sympa durant votre séjour au gîte

Lompret se situe à seulement 10 minutes de La Demoiselle ô Bois. Cette balade est une activité idéale pour découvrir la région et profiter pleinement de votre séjour chez nous. Après l'effort, retrouvez le confort de notre gîte pour un moment de détente bien mérité. 😊
