Nestled in the picturesque Ardennes region of Belgium, Stavelot is a town rich in history and adrenaline-pumping excitement. Its undisputed highlight is the magnificent Stavelot Abbey, a former Benedictine monastery dating back to the 7th century. Today, the Abbey houses three fascinating museums: one dedicated to the history of the principality, another to the renowned poet Guillaume Apollinaire, and, most famously, the Spa-Francorchamps Racetrack Museum, celebrating the legendary nearby circuit.

For motorsports enthusiasts, a visit to the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps itself, just a stone’s throw away, is an absolute must. Beyond the roar of engines, Stavelot offers breathtaking natural beauty, with opportunities for hiking and exploring the scenic Amblève valley. Don’t miss the dramatic Coo Waterfall or the family fun at Plopsa Coo Ardennes amusement park. Stavelot truly offers a unique blend of culture, history, and thrilling outdoor adventures.
