Would you like to enjoy an aperitif while discovering local products? It's happening at Le Fagotin, in the heart of the beautiful village of Stoumont!
You are going to love the "Apérando" concept. Go on a 3, 4.5 or 6.5 kilometre walk, guided by an illustrated roadbook with photos to taking you along pretty trails. You will discover a variety of landscapes while crossing Stoumont, through the woods of the region or along beautiful green meadows. When it's time for a snack, stop for a rest and taste the products in the box you received at the start. A nice feast awaits you: you will succumb to the assortment of local and seasonal products such as cheeses and deli meats or the cold cream of vegetable soup (for the rest, we don’t want to ruin the surprise…). For those who are very thirsty, local beer and fruit juices are part of the pack! Bring a good backpack, your bottle opener and your picnic blanket.
