Description

In the middle of the Fagne Wallonne you find Noir Flohay, a pine forest that was burnt twice during the peat fires of 1968 and 2011. The flames left behind a surreal location full of bare pine trees and blackened tree trunks. The irregular shapes of these dead trees in the middle of a desolate moorland make this location unique and extremely photogenic.
