Itinerary description

This month's hike with the Lustige Lochtingterters (LLT) takes me on a 18 km loop around the lake of Virelles, nearby the historial town of Chimay. The terrain is undulating and partly forested, and especially nice are the ubiquitous beds of early wildflowers. Strangely, the lake itself is hardly visible during the entire walk.

After the hike, I drive to Seloignes and from there hike through meadows and woods to a location where bivouacking is permitted. I pitch my tent and enjoy a cosy campfire until the evening falls. The reason for spending the night in a tent rather than returning home is that tomorrow I am scheduled to go packrafting a section of the nearby Viroin river.
