GAUME & SEMOIS

Morning

Guided tour of the Gaumais museum. Founded in 1937 in a former convent of the Récollets, built at the end of the 17th century and enlarged with a vast contemporary wing. The Gaumais museum is the home of artistic, cultural and human resources of the Gaume area of yesterday and today.

Noon

Possibility of a meal at "L'Ange Gardien" or at the "Hôtel Aux Comtes de Chiny" or at the "Auberge de l'Embarcadère". (Menu upon request)

Afternoon

Guided and commented descent in small flat bottom boats of the Semois river, between Chiny and Lacuisine, for 8 km. A boatman will steer you in this unique lush green jewel-case sure to make any traveler dream as he drifts amidst a hushed nature, its silence broken only by the fluttering of a fleeing duck or the thump of a boat hook as it strikes a pebble or two. (lasts 1 hr 30)
