  Modular Circuit

1 - Reinhardstein Castle

In this exceptional place, stroll among armour, paintings, chests and tapestries of yesteryear. Discover or rediscover the corps de logis: the Knights’ hall, the Guards’ hall, chapel, apartments and dungeon, during a guided tour lasting about an hour.

2 - The Fania exhibition at the Maison du Parc Naturel Hautes Fagnes-Eifel

Following a duckboard path, discover the particular features of the High Fens climate, its relief and natural landscapes. A sensory tunnel will immerse you in the mysterious ambience of the High Fens, in order to hear the noises of the night, the song of the birds in the morning; to creep, like a fox, inside a den or climb, like a squirrel, into a nest of twigs.

3 - The High Fens by charabanc

An original way to cover the forest paths and moors of the fens! Take a seat aboard the “charabanc”, a cart used in days gone by to go to mass among other places, and drawn by draft horses. Today, the cart is towed by a tractor!
