Parc naturel des Deux Ourthes

Parc naturel des Deux Ourthes is a protected nature park in Belgium's Luxembourg Province with two river branches, deep valleys, and thick forests. The site covers multiple municipalities and offers walking routes along with habitats for diverse plants and wildlife.

The park was established in 2001 and sits on some of Belgium's oldest rock formations within the Rhenish Massif region. The geological layers continue to shape the landscape with its characteristic valleys and river courses today.

The park engages 25,000 residents across six municipalities in environmental protection programs and sustainable development initiatives throughout the year.

The Park House in Houffalize provides visitor information and guidance with maps and trail advice for exploring the area. It is useful to stop there before setting out on longer walks to get good tips for your visit.

A hiking trail called Escapardenne-Eilseck connects multiple locations across roughly 100 kilometers through the park area and reaches the border of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. This long route takes walkers through changing landscapes and shows the range of terrain within the park.
