In the footsteps of a duchess: in 1787 the Duchess of Orléans came to Spa to take the waters and regained her health at the Sauvenière spring; her children raised a small monument beside it. The route climbs past the Cascade monumentale and the former Hôtel Britannique, visits the Sauvenière, Groesbeek and Reine springs and the Picherotte, then comes down by the Waux-Hall and the church of Notre-Dame et Saint-Remacle. Start: Tourist Office, rue du Marché 1A. Waymark: red rectangle.
