 The TTA: an outing not to be missed! Along the Aisne Valley , in a protected nature reserve , a pretty river caracoles merrily through a setting that is sometimes pastoral and picturesque, sometimes wild and proud, in the shade of vast, centuries-old forests. As the TTA heads off in search of its springs, the 11-kilometre route reveals the glorious Ardennes, displaying countryside that sparkles with beauty for your delight. In the little trains of yesteryear, jealously preserved and gleaming in shades of red and cream, an outing like no other awaits you. A real, living museum that offers you the chance to experience an age when time barely counted, when at the start of the 20th century a vast array of secondary, antiquated railway lines drew the province of Luxembourg out of its age-old torpor. At the TTA station , you'll find two playgrounds (free of charge), the museum and the Royal Syndicat d'Initiative d'Erezée.  Thanks to the hard work of everyone involved, with the support of the communes of Erezée and Manhay, the TTA snakes its way along the Aisne on the old Erezée-Lamormenil line. Revived by an enthusiastic team of volunteers of all ages who willingly devote their leisure time to the task... and who await you. We look forward to welcoming you! All services are paid on site, upon arrival. Your credit card is only taken as a guarantee.

 Cachée entre les collines d'un petit hameau, se trouve la Ferme de la Bourgade. C'est une ferme familiale, où petits et grands participent aux tâches quotidiennes.  Nous vous proposons deux activités : Le golffermier (du vendredi à dimanche) et les samedis (à 11h au matin) la promenade en char à banc  Le golffermier s'inspire bien évidemment du golf traditionnel si ce n'est que vous frappez la balle à l'aide d'un petit sabot en bois et que le terrain de golf est une prairie où il n'est pas rare de jouer parmi les vaches... C'est une agréable promenade au milieu des prairies vallonnées. Le parcours qui se situe dans un environnement calme et naturel, suit le ruisseau de Moressée. Tout le monde peut y jouer, c'est facile. La balade en char à banc est une façon originale pour découvrir la région en prenant place à bord de notre « char-à-bancs », construit par l'agriculteur même. Notre char-à-bancs, d'une capacité de 45 places, est tiré par un tracteur ! Nous vous proposons un circuit commenté de environ 15 km qui s'effectue en 2 heures à travers les prairies des bois Idéal pour une sortie en famille, avec des amis ou des collègues de travail.
