Ten minutes by car from Durbuy, the village of Wéris has the most important megalithic complex in Belgium: the Wéris dolmen or north dolmen, the Oppagne dolmen or south dolmen and several menhirs, raised by the first Neolithic farmers about 5,000 years ago. The dolmens stand in open meadows, beside the path.

The Maison des Mégalithes, at Place Arsène Soreil 7, is the starting point: it has a museum renovated in 2026 about the dolmens and their builders, walking routes, a terrace and the Dolménius, an amber beer served only there. Telephone: +32 86 21 02 19.
