About

The High Fens-Eifel nature park

Our nature park is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful regions in Belgium

Between moors en peat bogs, forests en rivers, dammed lakes and picturesque villages, the High Fens-Eifel nature park offers a remarkable range of landscapes worthy of the most beautiful postcards, less than an hour from Liège.  The park is divided into different regions.

To the norht-west lies the “Avant-pays fagnard”. Forests, gently rolling hills and vast meadows grazed by dairy cows gives the Eifel foothills their undisputed charm.

Once you cross the “Fagnard declivity”, you reach the High Fens Plateau, the highest region in Belgium.  Its peaks reach 672 metres (Baraque Michel) and 694 (Botrange).  Here, the forest gives way to a vast, open expanse of peat bogs, unique in Europe, interspersed with moorland.  This vast open landscape is the country’s largest nature reserve.

Then, to the south, there’s the Upper Eifel with its high wooded hills, dam lakes and picturesque Our Valley.
