Bouillon, Wallonia, Guided Trail Running Weekend

Thibault, a certified mountain leader wants to take you for a weekend of trail running through the Bouillon region in the Wallonia area of Belgium.

Description

Bouillon, like several other parts of the Wallonia region of Belgium, offers some great natural areas that are perfect for trail running. On this trip, we will make our way through 3 different trails in 2 days spanning approximately 50 kilometres. Each trail is unique and possess its own highlights. We will make our way through forests. We will make our way across rivers. We will even make our way through one of the 3 trails at night!

Another big highlight of this trip is that on one of the trails, there is a vertical drop that involves a technical descent. Thus adding a challenging aspect to the trip. The drop is not mandatory however, so if you don’t want to do it, you don’t have to.

The first day will begin with all participants and guides meeting at noon. After that, we will depart for the first trail at 1 o’clock. We will then have some much needed dinner at 7 o’clock. And at 9 o’clock, we will enjoy the second trail. On the second day we will wake up early and have breakfast. And by 9:30 we will head out and enjoy the final trail of the trip. After that, we will enjoy a nice lunch at the lodging before the end of the weekend’s adventure.

It is important to note that because of the nature of this trip, participants should be in good physical condition. Also, participants should be able to run at least 20 kilometres per day at a steady 9 kilometre per hour pace.

The scenery of Bouillon is beautiful and the thrill of briskly making your way through it is unforgettable. If that sounds like the way you want to enjoy a weekend in Belgium, just send me a request.

I offer another trail running trip through Engreux, which is also in the Wallonia region.

Mountain Leader

Passionate about trail running, the outdoors and everything that nature provides to us, I got certified as a mountain leader by the Club Alpin Belge. I also work as a school teacher and devote my free time to my artistic pursuits.

Maps are another of my big passions. I collect them and spend hours looking at them and searching for the best itineraries in the Alps, the Andes, the Carpathians...and then I take you to explore them, running or walking.

My mission is to share with you the happiness that a high altitude lake can provide, the comfort that one can find in a rustic mountain hut and the excitement of walking along a mountain ridge. Looking forward to meeting you!

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
