Nice course, but way too much concrete, roads. In addition, there are signs missing. At La Reid, for example, I had to put 20 'to find the road to follow, then new missing signs ... Otherwise, very beautiful.

Be careful, it seems that the starting point is at the end of the Clémentine at the exit of Spa (Allée du Marteau) and not at the Château de Franchimont! Very nice course, with some technical passages for amateurs

Magnificent region. Very hilly course with repeated ascents and descents. Course technique approaching absolute zero. I wonder how opinions can put 4 stars in technique when half the route is on the road ... For those looking for a mountain bike route, prefer that of Spa (6) without hesitation for a second.

Nice route with this wonderfully sunny weather. Few nice technical pieces and some tracks that you would rather think are rivers. Apart from a few signs, well signposted. Provided, of course, the right condition. Don't just start with this because some climbs will last.

Nice track. There are a few difficult climbs with decent rocks. Downhill runs are good. Advice is on the GPX to load on your mobile or something There are not signs everywhere.

Beautiful course realized in dry weather. Circuit maintained during my visit in September 2018. A remake!

Nice route but the signs are missing in a number of places. At a farm the route runs to a fence, an indication that one must pass this hell is welcome. It was quiet today, a number of pieces driven twice to get some extra altitude meters. Route was in a place by the grubbing of trees not to cycle, too bad because it is a beautiful climb!

Beautiful landscapes but pretty much asphalt. The problem of this route is the poor signage and the lack of maintenance. In Theux the route is blocked by a fence. Before Becco the route is dead in a, at that moment dried out, brook where you can hardly take the bike. If the route is maintained and the signage is correct again, I will come back.

Has probably been a superb course but needs a serious blow of maintenance. Missing, hidden or degraded signs. He had to stop often to check the map. Several areas are degraded following heavy rains of the previous 12 months. And it's time to cut tall grasses, nettles and hedges. To put on the list of circuits to (re) do once Theux Tourisme has done its work.

Did this trail in wet conditions, previous 48 hours a lot of rain. Very nice route, but tough under these conditions. One small track was impossible to ride and almost impossible to walk! Anyhow very glad I selected this route, since it has all possible landscapes and challenges you can expect in the Ardennes

First Ardennes trip, get used to the signs here and there a missing card or box data is a plus. Is a piece that is not cycling, but walk should not spoil the fun. Great experience. Blues have now done will also do more red this year. Highly recommended but do not pack it too lightly. Lots of fun.

Beautiful route! The boulders - while climbing and descending - make it a nice rugged and challenging route. The scenery is beautiful, as the starting location at the castle.
