With barely 1,400 souls, this hamlet charms visitors with its unspoiled Ardennes landscape, dense forests, and meandering streams. The village center clusters around the 18th-century Saint-Willibrord church and a handful of stone farmhouses, where the pace of life is dictated by the seasons. Wander along quiet lanes past pastures dotted with free-roaming cattle, or hike into the surrounding woods for panoramic valley views. In autumn, the foliage blazes gold and crimson; in spring, wildflowers carpet the undergrowth. Longvilly lacks tourist fuss — there are no museums or souvenir shops — but its appeal lies in authentic rural tranquility, perfect for slow cyclists, birdwatchers, and anyone craving digital detox. Local farms produce cheese and honey, and the nearby Ourthe River offers kayaking. The village also sits near the German-Luxembourg border, making it a quiet base for exploring the wider region.",[10,13,16,18],{"key":11,"value":12},"Police","101",{"key":14,"value":15},"Ambulance","112",{"key":17,"value":15},"Fire",{"key":19,"value":15},"European Emergency",[21,24,27,30,33,36,39,42,45,48,51,54],{"key":22,"value":23},"Do I need a visa?","Citizens of most EU countries do not.
