Parc naturel Viroin-Hermeton

The Viroin-Hermeton Natural Park covers multiple municipalities with forests, limestone hills, and varied habitats. It is accessible through an extensive network of walking routes and cycling paths that cross the terrain.

The Viroin and Hermeton valleys bear evidence of human settlement stretching back to prehistoric times. Archaeological findings throughout the area trace this long history of habitation.

Small villages throughout the park reflect how residents have traditionally farmed the land and continue to celebrate local festivals tied to the seasons. The communities here show everyday connections between people and their natural surroundings.

Marked hiking trails and cycling routes run through the park's varied landscapes at different difficulty levels. These paths are well-maintained, allowing visitors to choose routes suited to their abilities.

The area contains over 400 karst formations that create distinctive underground landscapes with caves and crevices. Rare wild orchid species thrive here as remnants of sub-Mediterranean plant life.
