Relive the weekend

A day of enjoyment and togetherness

Sunday 24 May was the heart of the rally: a full day in the elegant and friendly setting of the Hotel Anatura.

Lovers of great roads set off on a scenic rally where the goal is not speed but the pleasure of driving, discovering and sharing a unique moment. Walkers, meanwhile, enjoyed the landscape from a different angle on a nature walk.

At the end of the day, Michelin-starred chefs from Belgium and Luxembourg faced off in the Chefs’ Ryder Cup. The evening continued with a gourmet dinner, an auction, a raffle and the presentation of the Pierre Wynants Trophy, before ending on the dance floor.
