Car park at the Châtelet municipal park, where the town hall is located.
Yes, even though we are in Belgium, there is no town hall here, but rather a town hall.
(S/E) Walk towards the large house and go around it on the left. Cross the bridge.
(1) At the fork, take the path on the left. At the next fork, continue to the left. Pass behind the Chapelle de Bonhomme chapel. At the bottom of the path, turn left. You will come to a wide path; turn right.
(2) At the fork, turn left and then, at the next fork, continue to the right. Pass in front of the place called Doux Pommier.
(3) Stay on the main path until you reach a fork. Take the middle path.
(4) At the bottom, take the bridge on your right. Here are the ruins of the Forges du Prince. Continue along the path on the left. At the road, turn left and cross the bridge.
(5) At a place called Étang des Forges du Prince, climb slightly up the path and turn right immediately. Cross the stream on the stones or the bridge and continue to the left at the end. Continue along the path, passing old retention basins and fish farms.
(6) Pass in front of the place called La Fagne Jean Simon. When you reach the road, follow it to the right for a few dozen metres.

On the ground, you will see shiny pebbles, which are slag from the forge mixed with the earth of the path. Leave the bridge on your right and continue along the Étang du Pont d'Oye. Further on, take the bridge on the right to reach the road leading to the castle.
