Monthermé

Highlight • Settlement

Monthermé is located on both banks of the Semoy.
And as its name does not indicate it at all, its inhabitants are called the Baraquins. This kindness would come from the fact that the small town was at one time only a collection of a few huts. Their occupants were called “those in the barracks”. Hence the name Baraquins.
But the Ardennes are a land of legend, aren't they?

Seven O'Clock Rock

Highlight • Other

This site overlooks the town of Monthermé and opens a beautiful window onto the bends of the Meuse and the mountains that surround it. A green and hilly horizon of great beauty. The name Roche à Sept Heures comes from the fact that at seven o'clock, the sun illuminating this rocky spur gives it a very visible shine.

November 28, 2024,Rocks&Stones #2 – Blicke auf die Meuse

The day began with early morning exercise: 200 meters of elevation in 20 minutes. Up there, from the Seven O'Clock Rock (Roche à sept heures), I was greeted by my first great view of the town of Monthermé in the Ardennes and the Meuse Valley (pronounced "Möse", it's not my fault, that's what it really means, in German "Maas").

The Semois flows into the Maas near Monthermé in the French Ardennes. With ideal hiking weather, we were able to enjoy a very nice tour with wonderful panoramic views of the Meuse and great rock formations (lots of slate!).
