In Belgium: Discovering Wallonia

834

Wallonia is also a great opportunity to visit truly magical caves and remarkable animal parks. Raining? Take your children to interactive museums, some of which are particularly suitable for the youngest! Choose from a selection of the best offers, or simply decide to do it all.

For educational pursuits, you really can’t do better than the museums of Wallonia – the Museum of Natural History and Vivarium of Tournai is devoted to the evolution of the animal world, and hosts important collections from around the world. The museum also offers an outdoor route in a landscaped garden where there is a greenhouse of exotic butterflies.

At the University Aquarium-Museum of Liège, visitors can discover a rich collection of living aquatic animal species and specimens of great scientific, historical and artistic value.

As far as inspiration for accommodation is concerned, Wallonia has manifest delights – for a truly unique stay, try the Song of the Stars. In the Spa region, this sphere (transparent bubble) for two people offers an unusual sensory experience in total harmony with the surrounding nature.

If camping is more your line, try Le Val de l’Aisne in Blier. Located in Erezée in the hollow of a green valley between Durbuy and La Roche-en-Ardenne, this campsite offers fascinating accommodation such as hanging tents, lodge tents, caravans and spheres.

Or, for complete luxury, try the Aqualodge Hotel Ermeton-sur-Biert – in the depths of the Maredsolian countryside, on the banks of the Molignée, are six unique and unusual small chalets on stilts offering a total change of scenery in the heart of nature.

For a journey back in time, try La Roulotte d’Annabelle, a mini holiday house in Soy, Erezée. This unusual Buggenhout caravan for two to three people, located in a village in the commune of Erezée, offers a trip to yesteryear.

In short, if total relaxation, immersion in adventure or diving into nature is what you are after, there are few places in Europe to suit you better than Wallonia. You will return from your voyage to this paradise in Belgium refreshed, invigorated and fully prepared to face the music once more. Enjoy.
