Durbuy comes alive to the sound of engines this weekend with two exceptional events

zoute grand prix

From April 23 to 26, Durbuy becomes the meeting point for car enthusiasts with two major events organized by the Zoute Grand Prix: the Durbuy Rally by Tricorp Workwear and the Durbuy GT Tour by Curbstone.

For several days, the region will pulse to the rhythm of engines, blending classic cars and modern GTs in a unique natural setting in the heart of the Ardennes.

Two events, two atmospheres… one shared passion

Durbuy Rally by Tricorp Workwear

A must-attend event for vintage car enthusiasts.

Only vehicles registered between 1920 and 1975 are allowed, offering a true journey through time. Between the elegance of the bodywork and the charm of period mechanics, the rally captivates with its authenticity.

On the program: scenic routes, gourmet stops, and a friendly atmosphere, including an evening at Grand Verre by Wout Bru.

GT Tour

Durbuy GT Tour by Curbstone

A more modern event focused on sports cars and GTs, offering a dynamic and immersive driving experience.

The route begins with a stop at W Racing Team in Grace-Hollogne before heading into the Ardennes for driving sessions and challenges such as the Bernister test.

Combining performance and prestige, the GT Tour offers a more sporty approach while maintaining a premium experience.

A unique automotive weekend in the Ardennes

What makes this weekend special? The coexistence of two complementary worlds: classic rally cars and modern GTs.

A rare contrast that turns Durbuy into a true playground for enthusiasts.

In the streets, on the roads, or near hotels and restaurants, visitors will be able to spot exceptional vehicles, sometimes just meters away, between roaring engines and iconic silhouettes.

An original idea for a weekend outing in Durbuy

Even though these events are reserved for registered participants, the entire town benefits from the atmosphere. The Durbuy Rally and GT Tour transform the town center and its surroundings into a real open-air spectacle.

During a stroll through the center, a drink on a terrace, or a dinner, let yourself be surprised by the passing of legendary cars and the unique atmosphere taking over the city.

It’s the perfect opportunity to admire rare and exceptional vehicles, enjoy a lively atmosphere, and discover Durbuy from a different perspective. Families, curious visitors, and car enthusiasts alike will find something to enjoy.

Looking for things to do this weekend in the Ardennes? This double automotive event is the perfect opportunity to combine sightseeing, entertainment, and discovery in a unique spring setting.

Wellness in Durbuy: what’s new at Sanglier des Ardennes

Wellness

In Durbuy, Sanglier des Ardennes continues to enhance its wellness area to meet the expectations of guests seeking relaxation, comfort and immersive experiences.

As spring approaches, the hotel spa introduces new facilities and expands its treatment offering, further strengthening its high-end positioning in the heart of the Ardennes.

A salt cave for deep relaxation

Among the most notable additions, the spa now features a salt cave, designed as a true cocoon of relaxation.

Its walls and floor are covered with natural crystals, sourced from the Himalayas and the Dead Sea, creating a soothing atmosphere ideal for unwinding.

This space invites you to slow down, breathe and enjoy a moment of absolute calm in an environment known for its wellness benefits.

Infrared sauna: gentle and beneficial heat

Another new feature is the addition of an infrared sauna, complementing the spa’s existing facilities.

Unlike a traditional sauna, it provides a softer, more penetrating heat, ideal for relieving muscle tension, supporting recovery and delivering long-lasting relaxation.

A complementary experience perfectly aligned with a holistic approach to well-being.

Pure Altitude: a new signature treatment brand

Sanglier des Ardennes also welcomes Pure Altitude, a skincare brand inspired by the benefits of mountains and alpine plants.

This new signature enhances the wellness experience with sensory rituals combining natural ingredients, effectiveness and pleasure.

Each treatment becomes a true escape, like a high-altitude immersion designed to benefit both body and mind.

A constantly evolving wellness experience

With these new additions, Sanglier des Ardennes strengthens both the quality and diversity of its wellness offering.

Salt cave, infrared sauna, enriched treatments… all elements that enhance an already renowned experience, set in an elegant environment combining wood, marble and natural light.

The spa is now a destination in itself for those wishing to take a break, whether for a few hours or during a stay in the Ardennes.

Durbuy: your wellness escape in the Ardennes

Sanglier des Ardennes welcomes its new Wine Director, Daan de Marteleire

Daan de Marteleire

With great enthusiasm, I begin my role as the new Wine Director at Sanglier des Ardennes in Durbuy.

My passion for gastronomy began at hotel and tourism school, where I laid the foundations for my career in hospitality. I was then given the opportunity to further develop my experience in several renowned establishments.

From 2013 to 2016, I worked at Slagmolen (2 Michelin stars), where I refined my understanding of gastronomic finesse and deepened my appreciation for thoughtful food and wine pairings. Between 2016 and 2018, I was part of the team at De Kwizien, where product knowledge, creativity and overall guest experience were central.

In 2018, I took the step into entrepreneurship with Ansoler (2018–2020), where as owner-manager I was able to develop my own vision of wine and hospitality. From 2020 to 2025, I worked at Restaurant Hert (1 Michelin star), where precision, refinement and consistency were daily core values.

A new momentum for the wine identity of Sanglier des Ardennes

Today, I look forward to fully dedicating my experience and passion to the entire team at Sanglier des Ardennes. My goal is to further build a strong wine identity together, with attention to terroir, gastronomy and guest experience.

I strongly believe in collaboration, knowledge sharing and a positive vision of the future. Together, we can continue to grow and surprise our guests time and time again.

I look forward to writing this new chapter together.

The “Hands of Art” Collection Comes to the Gallery of Le Sanglier des Ardennes

galerie The Hands of Art

A Unique Collection of Artists’ Hands

George Wittenborn (1905–1974), a New York art bookseller and publisher, played an important role in the artistic scene of his time. In his guestbook (1944–1974), he gathered from contemporary artists an extraordinary number of drawings, prints, collages, and photographs of their hands.

This group portrait of George Wittenborn alongside the artists of his time was later expanded by Ronny Van de Velde with dozens of contributions from contemporary artists.

Today, this exceptional collection includes nearly 300 artists’ hands, both well-known and lesser-known, including: Pierre Alechinsky, Arp, Baldessari, Louise Bourgeois, Calder, Chagall, Raoul De Keyser, Marcel Duchamp, Max Ernst, Jan Fabre, Arshile Gorky, Jan Hoet, Asger Jorn, Axel Katz, Le Corbusier, Lichtenstein, Man Ray, Miró, Motherwell, Claes Oldenburg, Panamarenko, Raveel, Dieter Roth, Ruscha, Rob Scholte, Thomas Schütte, Richard Serra, Tapiès, Luc Tuymans, Henk Visch, Warhol, Erwin Wurm…

A Collection Exhibited in Major Institutions

In 2008, the collection was exhibited at the S.M.A.K. in Ghent, and in 2011 at the Museum aan de Stroom (MAS) in Antwerp.

Entitled “The Hands of Art”, it is now part of the Alychlo - Marc Coucke art collection and is today on display at Le Sanglier des Ardennes.

In 2007, the book Artist’s Handbook was published by Ludion Editions. This publication is available for purchase at the hotel reception.

What if your next corporate seminar broke the mould?

Corporate seminar in Durbuy: when the location becomes a strategic lever

Organising a corporate seminar used to be a purely functional exercise. A meeting room, a dense agenda, a series of presentations… then back to daily routine. Today, companies expect more from these collective moments. They seek experiences that create connection, spark ideas and energise teams.

Organising a corporate seminar in Durbuy, in the heart of the Ardennes, opens a different perspective. One where the setting itself invites new ways of thinking.

business center

Breaking the mould, geographically first

Leaving the office, stepping away from routine and breaking the daily rhythm immediately changes group dynamics. In Durbuy, nature sets a different pace. Perspectives widen, conversations slow down and focus naturally returns.

Forests, rolling landscapes and winding paths create an environment conducive to concentration and reflection. Ideal for a corporate seminar that goes beyond a succession of meetings and leaves room for collective thinking.

Change the place, change the mindset

Breaking the mould is not only about changing location. It is also about changing posture.
Far from everyday constraints, discussions become more open, ideas flow more freely and even silence finds its place.

In this context, the corporate seminar is no longer a logistical obligation but becomes a truly strategic moment, where decisions are built together with greater clarity and depth.

Contenu

Le Sanglier des Ardennes, catalyst for this shift

At Le Sanglier des Ardennes, the setting goes beyond the landscape.
The Business & Conference Center has been designed to support companies in organising seminars and professional events, offering elegant, modular and fully equipped spaces.

The seminar rooms adapt to different working formats: strategic meetings, collaborative workshops, small-group reflection sessions or more informal exchanges. Everything is designed to enhance the quality of interaction without ever restricting it.

When work continues in a different way

The most memorable moments of a corporate seminar do not always happen around a meeting table. A shared lunch, a gastronomic dinner, an informal end-of-day discussion or an outdoor activity all contribute to collective momentum.

At Le Sanglier des Ardennes, gastronomy, wellness and curated experiences become natural extensions of the working day, fostering exchange, cohesion and the emergence of new ideas.

Nature as a space for connection

In Durbuy, nature is never far away. It provides the perfect setting for productive disconnection, team-building activities or simply walking and talking.

These outdoor moments often allow new ideas to emerge, strengthen relationships and create shared memories that give meaning to time spent together.
