The Ardennes has something special like other regions in Belgium. In the Ardennes it is always fun all year round. Especially autumn has charm that you won’t find anywhere else. It is therefore the perfect place to extend your holiday feeling.

1.    Continue to enjoy nature and the outdoors.

The Ardennes is really nice and cozy in the summer, but you can also continue to enjoy it in the fall.

The leaves start to discolour and the forests then have a beautiful appearance. Walks deep in the forests of the Ardennes are therefore not to be missed when visiting the Ardennes in autumn. Finish with a winter barbecue and an evening around the fire pit with friends or family.

2.    Go spotting burbling deer

From mid-September to mid-October you can spot roaring deer in the woods near the Ardennes. The beautiful natural phenomenon really heralds autumn. The deer then go into their Bronze Age and thus look for mates to mate. To attract the females, the males roar loudly in the woods. Read tips here to be sure to spot them.

3.    The local cuisine is alive and well

Autumn is the culinary momentum of the Ardennes. The hunting season starts and the chefs conjure up the tastiest dishes on your plate with ingredients fresh from the region. Locally picked mushrooms and vegetables combined with a good local beer are the basis for the best stews in the region.  That can only taste good.
