    This pilgrimage is an old custom to which the population of Andenne holds dearly. The oral tradition tells that it was after pest and cholera epidemics which ravaged the region around 1696, that a handful of men came to Saint-Hubert for the first time. Since the epidemics had stopped at their arrival, they promised to come to back to the city every two years. This walk of 150 km, to be done in three days (Andenne-Saint-Hubert-Andenne), nowadays takes place on even years. It starts the night before Whitsun after the 4 am mass and it returns on Whit-Monday at the end of the afternoon.


    This event takes place every two years (on even years).
    Departure and return at the Collegiate church of Andenne.
