Ardennes
The
Ardennes is a region of extensive forests and rolling hill country (its highest point is under 700 m), primarily in
Belgium and
Luxembourg, but stretching into
France (lending its name to the
Ardennes département and the
Champagne-Ardenne région) and
Germany, where this range is known as the
Eifel.
It is an important destination for tourism in Belgium.
The forest has been the location of several battles, such as the Battle of the Ardennes and the Battle of the Bulge.
