By far the best hiking was in the Hautes Fagnes National park. This area is a large plateau that is made up of thick peat bogs. It is very similar to the Dolly Sods in West Virginia or the small bog on top of Laurel Mountain. There were hundreds of gurgling streams that drained the water so that the peat itself was actually pretty dry to walk on. This park also gets good snow and is supposed to be great X-country skiing. We’re already planning a return trip this winter….maybe with Sage in the hotel over Christmas.
