Team building ILEE

NOTE that the Teambuilding Day has been postponed to September 30!

We will visit the new National Park « Entre Sembre et Meuse » (ESEM)

The ESEM National Park comprises over 22,000 hectares of natural areas in the municipalities of Chimay, Couvin, Froidchapelle, Momignies and Viroinval. It is characterised by three geological regions:

• the Ardennes with extensive forest heritage of great ecological value (ancient forests), home to many species characteristic of this biotope (deer, black stork, fire salamander, etc.);
• the Calestienne made up of limestone grasslands: one of the most diverse ecosystems in Wallonia, with remarkable flora and fauna (orchids, butterflies, etc.);
• the Fagne, criss-crossed by waterways such as the Viroin, Eau Blanche and Eau Noire: well-preserved, unpolluted rivers with superb hay meadows that underline the beauty of the region.

Proposed programme:

7h45: Departure from UNamur by bus

9h00: Coffee reception in the park's offices (located in Couvin)

9h15: “Theoretical" presentation of the National Park
