The
chalet is just a 10min/1ml walk from the town of Houffalize, with its shops, restaurants and street side
terraces. Houffalize is a typical Ardennes village, approx.
15mls South from the well-known La-Roche-en-Ardenne. The
town is located on a peninsula on the Ourthe River,
and surrounded by hills. It is
generally recognized to be the mountain bike-capital of
Belgium.
The
town is just 10 miles from Bastogne, in the midst of the "Battle of the
Bulge" area, with numerous witnesses from
WWII's
most deadly battle. (Houffalize itself is home to a
Panther Tank). The
chalet is your perfect venue to
start exploring the numerous WWII landmarks and museums
nearby.
