Discover the Pays de Herve and its surroundings

The Pays de Herve is the perfect destination for a weekend or a few relaxing days in the Belgian countryside. With its rolling landscapes, charming villages, local producers, abbeys and countless walking and cycling routes, the region is ideal for exploring on foot or by bike.

Located in Julémont, between Herve and Aubel, Gîte de Grise Pierre is an ideal base from which to explore the Pays de Herve and the surrounding area.

Discover Aubel and its market

Just a few minutes from Grise Pierre, Aubel is one of the must-see villages of the Pays de Herve. Its market, held every Tuesday and Sunday, together with its terraces and local food shops, makes it a particularly enjoyable place to visit.

The Aubel region is also renowned for its local produce: cheeses, Liège syrup, ciders, beers, cured meats and other regional specialities, including the Vignoble du Bois de Loë and wines from the Pays de Herve.

Visit Val-Dieu Abbey

Nestled in the Berwinne valley, Val-Dieu Abbey is one of the region's most iconic landmarks. The abbey, its grounds and brewery make for a wonderful excursion close to the gîte.

Val-Dieu is also an excellent starting point for several walks through the beautiful countryside of the Pays de Herve.

Stroll through Clermont-sur-Berwinne

Listed as one of the Most Beautiful Villages of Wallonia, Clermont-sur-Berwinne is well worth a visit for its architecture, village square and rural setting, so typical of the Pays de Herve.

It is also a lovely place to include in a walking or cycling tour of the region.

During your stay, take the opportunity to visit local producers, farms and shops and discover the flavours of the region.
