Circular around Thy-le-Bauduin

Set off to explore the woods of Tournibus and the vast, gently rolling landscapes of this part of Entre Sambre-et-Meuse along wide forest paths and discover its history, which was sometimes tragic, such as the Battle of Wagnée on 24 August 1914. It was at Hanzinelle Castle that the "Hanzinelle Agreements" were signed in 1978, restructuring the Walloon steel industry. Not to mention its folklore with the famous Marches de l'entre Sambre-et-Meuse, re-enactments in period costume of Napoleon's armies.

Also known as the Forêt des Minières due to the region’s mining history, this forest will enchant many a hiker. Nature reigns supreme here and, apart from a bit of noise pollution near the N932, it is utterly peaceful, with birdsong or the rustling of leaves in the wind depending on the season and the weather.

Starting from the hamlet of Les Bruyères, this walk first takes you to Wagnée before introducing you to the Tournibus forest and the surrounding countryside on the borders of Biesme (Mettet), Fromiée (Gerpinnes) and Hanzinelle (Florennes).Superb forest and countryside landscapes, peaceful and sheltered from the hustle and bustle of modern life.A real delight of trees, crops and flowers in tune with the seasons.A unique discovery between the GR® 129 Renaix-Dinant and the GRP® 125 Tour de l'Entre-Sambre-et-Meuse.You can also start at Place d'Hanzinelle (easy parking) if you are coming from Florennes or Gerpinnes.

This route crosses the countryside around the village of Laneffe, with a few woods along the way, via beautiful, accessible paths. There is a large car park at the starting point. The walk begins by following part of the Tour Saint-Éloi, a path taken by the Saint-Éloi procession during the village's traditional folk march. From (4), it continues towards the heights of the village, where you can see the surroundings in the direction of Charleroi. The end of the route gives pride of place to the green countryside before returning to the village.

A walk that is half forest, half countryside between the villages of Fraire, Saint-Aubin and Morialmé.The route takes you along paths connecting villages, forest and country lanes, and small country roads. Please be careful not to take any paths or forest lanes that are closed to the public (to preserve the peace and quiet of the wildlife).

Here is a circular walk that offers a mix of countryside and woodland along paths, tracks, RAVeL routes and small roads in the areas bordering Walcourt and Ham-sur-Heure-Nalinnes.Make the most of nature in spring for the flowers and in autumn for the beautiful colours in the forest.

A beautiful hike (just over 3 hours), much appreciated, combining forests, streams, ponds and countryside. You will also be able to admire the castle of Sart-Eustache. There are a few short sections on tarmac, but these are necessary to reach other beautiful sections where the forest dominates. Hunting dates below
