On the trail of the Macralles
Head out with the family on a fun walk that’s something between a game of paper chase and a treasure hunt. Discover the beauty of Vielsalm and its surroundings, have fun with the kids, and spend some quality time out in the fresh air.
This hunt will take you to Vielsalm, home of the Macralles (Sorcerers). On the 20th of July each year, these legendary figures meet on the rocks of the Tiennemesse for their Sabbath. As you meander around Doyards lake, you’ll learn all about the region’s fantastic stories and highly-colourful folkloric heritage.
