From September 25 to 27, 2025, Wheels of Thrill proudly presents the RALLYE DES ARDENNES — a brand-new rally edition that takes us through the unspoiled south of Belgium, near the French border. Here, the Lower Ardennes set the stage for this atmospheric adventure, with winding roads through dense forests, rustic villages, deep valleys, and impressive rock formations.
The rally starts at the elegant Château de Vignée, a newly renovated five-star hotel where luxury, nature, and fine dining come together — the ideal base for our journey through the Ardennes. On Thursday afternoon, we will gather for a warm welcome and a toast, followed by a refined six-course dinner at Arden, the hotel’s Michelin-starred restaurant. After a well-deserved night of rest, we begin the first part of our route on Friday. Expect carefully curated routes along flowing, scenic roads, interspersed with culinary stops and cultural discoveries. Friday's highlight is a visit to the 'Château-Fort de Bouillon', perched high on a rock in the middle of the town, offering a strategic view over the Semois River. After a delicious local lunch, we head back to Château de Vignée, where we will spend a second night — so no need to lug around any baggage. We will arrive with plenty of time to unwind and enjoy the wellness facilities at a relaxed pace. In the evening, we once again come together for another stellar culinary experience at the Michelin-starred restaurant Arden. After another gastronomic experience and a well-deserved night’s rest, Saturday brings the second and final stage of the route. Among others, we will visit the charming city of Dinant, spectacularly located along the Meuse River and famous for its cliffside views, citadel, and musical heritage. Following another 2-course lunch while overlooking the Meuse, we will arrive in the afternoon at the finish location near Namur, where we will close the weekend in style.
