In the small town of Chiny there's a steep path leading right to the
Semois River and its Embarcadère. The boatmen await you there.
Once your boat is ready, it's time to sail away from the quay and its
bridge, to sail off into the blue yonder.

Unwind as you behold the divine landscape at your feet. The dark forest
of Chiny stands there, protected by the Negis rock, its first bastion
shielding the gulf. An invisible hand raises the drawbridge linking you
to the outside world. An amazing spectacle awaits you as you gaze upon
tall pine trees reaching for the sharp cliffs, the gun glancing through
shades of green, its rays diffusing time after time ever-changing reflections.
As
the jay wings away sounding off the alarm, the startled doe dashes into
the thicket, the heron flies off flapping its wings against the water,
the fox vanishes into its den and the kingfisher skims above the bright
mirror surface of the river. The impenetrable river banks at the edge
of a wild and untouched forest beckon at your feet. The sturdy rocks hover
there above you with whimsical names such as the Gouffre Loué,
the proud Maître Rocher du Hat, the treacherous Rocher Fendu and
the Rehat companions, much like the inseparable musketeers
part
of the great legends. At your feet, a winding crystal clear band where
three silver trout frolic, symbols of the Chiny coat of arms.
