History

Description

The Parc National de Furfooz is a park located on the Montagne du Chalet and the Montagne la Fontaine, two ridges formed by the river Lesse, and a now vanished small river, which left a typical dry valley. In the rocks along the river Lesse exist various abris and caves, which were used by prehistoric man as hunting stations. The archaeological excavation sites are shown on a guided tour around the park.
