LA BALADE DES HIBOUX

At the hilly villages of Buissenal and Œudeghien the hiker will find a series of magnificent views, which are invitations to discover the many aspects of the region: dispersed farms, woods, footpaths, chapels and mountainous, grove-like landscapes. It is the walkers and cyclotourists' paradise. A year after its opening, the Tour de France Museum has welcomed 6,000 visitors... La Grande Boucle 2004 passed in front of Lucien de Schepper's little farm as a tribute to the work of this relentless collector.
