Belgium, a country that is very discreet, but reeeeeally nice ;-)

that "little house" used to be a watermill, its ancient, it was already there when Godfried of Boullion was coming back from the crusades, my dad bought it when i was a teenager, years of renovation, he sold it 20 years ago, lots of memories from that place

Wow, that must be incredible to have experienced such a historic place while growing up! That, in our opinion, is one of the most beautiful, peaceful places we've encountered in our travels.

@@lylesuch4421 Yes, and it's interesting to hear that you had no idea that Belgium would be so great before actually setting foot in the country. It means that the Belgians are not self-conscious enough as a nation, they don't publicize their country enough on the international stage. May I ask what country you are from?

Agreed. We are taught the history of Belgium here in the U.S., so as a tourist we are there to experience the history. The beauty, nature, friendliness of the people and diversity of fun things to do aren't highly publicized. It is impressive that Belgium has never really promoted themselves as a tourist destination in the United States, they could really bring in a lot more tourist dollars if they did, although probably a good thing that they stay under the radar!

Magnifique vallée, beau pays

Years later and we still remember this hike with great happiness...it's hard to define but there's something special about that area. The combination of rivers, churches, hills and forests makes for a perfect day of hiking, and to end in a town like Bouillon was perfect. We've been all over the world and Belgium is easily one of our favorite countries.

This was a great video!

Awesome video! glad you enjoyed Belgium.

There are other places with as awesome sceneries in Belgium. Surely one of my favourites. Went with the scouts a few times there. Also organic tobacco is produced there

Wow very nice place great video

Belgium has very beautiful places. I love nature. One time I went to Austria. Their gardens are so peaceful and beautiful 😍😍😍

Belgium ♥

très beau !

Amazing video it was!

Welcome in my country

Hii I really enjoy your page ☺ Keep it up!

Be sure to visit the medieval castle in Bouillon that belonged to Godfrey of Bouillon, the leader of the first Crusade who liberated Jerusalem in 1099.

You can look up the GR16 route in Belgium. It's a multi-day trail, we only hiked the section from Rochehaut to Bouillon (this looked like the best part). Good luck!

I've been hiking there many times. Such a beautiful region! BTW how did you make that animated intro with the map?

We loved that area, and were surprised how beautiful and peaceful the hiking was. Hopefully will be returning someday to explore more thoroughly with a little more time. The intro map is a simple Google Earth animated map, but retimed in After Effects to fit the fomat a little better.

I’d love to help, it was also very challenging for us to figure out the hike so I hope I can make it easier for you. The hike is called the GR16. There are small red and white markings that you follow along the way, but there are so many ways you can go that it’s easy to go the wrong way if you’re not paying attention. Luckily, after all the research that we did, I stumbled across Alltrails.com and they had the exact route that takes you through the best parts of that area. If you sign up to Alltrails.com (I think it’s free), then search for GR16 Sentier de la Semois you will find the entire hike. Zoom in to Rochehaut (or Frahan) and follow all the way to Bouillon. Upload map to your phone and you should be set. A couple of tips: Make sure you stay near the river after the Tomb of the Giants and that will take you through the beautiful valley and abbey. It can be tricky if you plan on hiking one way. There is no transport service, we had to have our hotel in Bouillon call a cab to drive us back to our car which we left in Rochehaut. Not a big deal, but it does take some extra time. Don’t miss the lookout tower above Bouillon. Good luck, if you have any more questions let me know. I’m sure you will love this hike!

It sounds complicated, but once you do it, it's not so difficult. Export GPX data from app such as Strava or AllTrails. Import into Google Earth. Animate in Google Earth, and render. I always love to see the path we've taken after a long hike like this.
