28 gourmet circuits and 1 beer route
Gourmet Wallonia means 28 gourmet circuits, and a free brochure available for download, that will offer you the opportunity to meet our regional farmers and generous and dedicated craftsmen who will share their know-how with you. Gourmets and all other types of hedonists will enjoy travelling from village to village, being guided around a traditional cheese factory, a chocolate factory, and even a snail farm.
Gourmet Wallonia also means Walloon beers, which are part of UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage. In 2017, Wallonia offers you the Beer Route, a unique tourist route that leads you around typical Walloon breweries.
