Chimay, a small city in the Belgian Ardennes, is mostly known for its famous Trappist beer and various types of cheese. But Chimay is more than that: the natural environment – very close to the French border – is breath-taking and the abbeys and castles are absolutely worth a visit. Another great Ardennes city is Dinant, just an hour’s drive away. Chimay is definitely the perfect destination for your weekend away in the Belgian Ardennes.
