The race starts at the Sports Centre on Rue Célestin Hastir. The course is flat until the first pond (2.4 km) and continues until km 3.8. After the Fontaine Ste-Gertrude, i.e. from km 6 to km 7, there is a gentle climb. After that, the course descends to the finish line. Beautiful views of the different landscapes.

Adeps walk from the Floreffe Sports Centre by Jordion
Departure from the Sports Centre on Rue Célestin Hastir. The route is flat until you reach "Le Grand Saule" at 3.5 km and continues to the "Royal du Fayt" woods, just after 5 km. Then you walk through small woods and fields. A very varied route that is not too difficult.
From Floreffe to Franière via the towpath, between the Sambre, the abbey and nature
A charming walk in a green setting along the Sambre, connecting Floreffe to Franière and returning via the natural part of the towpath. During this visit, you will discover magnificent views of Floreffe Abbey, the autonomous port of Floreffe, but above all, a relaxing view of nature along the naturally vegetated banks of the Sambre, which adds extra charm to this wonderful walk. You are sure to encounter birds such as herons.

Enjoy your walk and happy exploring.
Ham-sur-Sambre circular
A short hike in the woods of Ham and Roly, and along the Sambre. You can hike with a dog without any problems and also mountain bike, but perhaps in the other direction as the Bois Roly has quite a steep gradient, which is easier to descend by bike than to climb.
The Orneau Valley from Spy to Onoz
Starting from Spy Church, overlooking the square of the same name, the route leads to the small village of Onoz through fields, which can be seen at the bottom of a wooded valley along the Orneau. From there, shaded paths follow the banks of the stream and then explore the Bois de la Veuve and Bois du Bètch-aus-Rotches woods, located on the side of the valley. The route inevitably passes by the Spy Man's cave and the museum dedicated to him.
In the Betche aux Roches woods in search of the Man of Spy
A short walk through the woods surrounding Spy Cave to the Orneau Valley.
La Marlagne, on the plateau of the Citadel of Namur
Starting from the Namur Youth Hostel, where you will find parking spaces and access to public transport.
Between paths, forest trails, views of the Namur countryside and the Meuse valley. There is little tarmac, except at the start of the route, but it is not dangerous and there is relatively little traffic.
