Rensiwez Viewpoint

Where? Coulnifontaine, B-6660 Houffalize

At this point, the view plunges down towards the valley... giving an idea of the height difference since the mill.

Rensiwez means ‘ford’ or ‘reindeer crossing’, and several discoveries such as tombs and flint axes suggest that the site was occupied very early on in history. Today, the site has become a leisure area with the establishment of the Rensiwez cabins.
