Walk between Hèze, Roux-Miroir and Longueville

A short 8 km circular walk starting from the Grez-Doiceau Post Office. This walk takes you along the cycle path, footpaths, fields and woods. You will pass through a few streets in Grez-Doiceau, but the route is mostly sheltered from traffic, except for a straight stretch towards Biez. A simple yet varied route ideal for daily walks starting from Grez.

The Fort des Voiles, also known as Ferme Rose for obvious reasons, was successively used as a glass furnace, a flour mill and a fish farm (trout).The name Fort des Voiles is thought to come from a distortion of "for à voires", which in Walloon means "glass furnace".In the 17th century, the glass industry required a lot of wood, which would explain its geographical location.The fish farm was created a little further down, along the Ruisseau du Glabais stream, and operated from 1950 until around 2000, when the presence of beavers and a sewage treatment plant, located upstream of the stream and inadequately protected against flooding, forced the owners to cease operations for health reasons.The current buildings date from the 1920s.

The villages of Bossut and Gottechain were merged in 1811 to form the municipality of Bossut-Gottechain. The 1977 municipal reform incorporated both into the entity of Grez-Doiceau.With this little page of Belgian history turned, the walk starts from the square in Bossut and takes you on a route that is more rural in Wallonia and more wooded in Flanders (Meerdaalbos), another Belgian story as the route straddles the two neighbouring provinces of Brabant.

This short walk through the Brabant countryside, including a visit to the Champt’aine Nature Reserve, offers a chance to get some fresh air and recharge your batteries away from the hustle and bustle of the big cities. Thelandscapes vary greatly depending on the season.

A very beautiful walk. Starting near the Nodebais pond. Passing by a few houses decorated by local artists (ceramics on the facades) then along paths through the countryside. There are few roads on this walk, mainly country lanes.

Chaumont-Gistoux, like many places in Walloon Brabant, is full of small paths and trails connecting the villages, hamlets and neighbourhoods of the area. This is one of the highlights of the walk.

A walk around Melin and Gobertange offering the chance to discover some beautiful stone buildings in Gobertange. This route was explored during a 5 km ADEPS walk in Melin on 13 August 2023.

At the turn of each season, a new walk to gain a better understanding of the aspirations and constraints faced by local stakeholders – farmers, market gardeners and smallholders, producers and processors, both current and potential. With family and/or friends and neighbours, discover these new circular routes, either on your own or as part of one of the guided walks. This is the walk through our beautiful village of Nethen.
