Short loop at the Royal Golf Club of Waterloo

A lovely 4 km circular route around the Royal Golf Club of Waterloo, starting from the charming Place de Ransbeck. This route is a slightly longer version of the walk entitled ‘A short walk in Ransbeck’, with the difference that this route passes by the Chapelle Jacques.

Here is a circular walk allowing you to discover the beautiful spots of the Lasne - Couture-Saint-Germain area, sometimes completely surrounded by nature, sometimes passing through the pretty neighbourhoods of this area. It involves a lot of ups and downs: the walk is in the "Brabant double 'v'allon" and the views are superb.

The tour is suitable for Nordic walking, despite a few short stretches on asphalt on small country roads and some cobblestones. Ohain is renowned for its agriculture and the diversity and beauty of its landscape. Several rivers run through the municipality, such as the Lasne (a tributary of the Dyle) and a few streams, including the Ohain.

This walk will help you discover Ohain. Miss Kika will take you along small paths, trails and lanes, crossing the golf course towards the Smohain valley, which you will follow for most of the walk. Together with the Lasne river, into which it flows, it gives the village its relief, while the numerous ponds attract many species of birds. The variety of landscapes, horses and numerous marked trails are what make this town so charming.

Starting from the 1815 site, this first stage of my tour of Wallonia connects two towns named Braine – Braine-l’Alleud and Braine-le-Comte – whilst prioritising routes away from towns and villages as much as possible. But that doesn’t necessarily mean they are farm tracks or footpaths. Where possible, yes; otherwise, mostly small country roads.

Here is a long and challenging circular route, with numerous ascents and descents, through woodland or open countryside, taking in tarmac roads, cobbled streets, gravel paths, dirt tracks and sandy terrain. All this whilst avoiding built-up areas as much as possible and staying in the countryside.

For once, here is a long 27 km circular hike through the rolling countryside of this corner of Walloon Brabant. Starting from the Butte du Lion - site 1815 - it first crosses the town of Braine-l'Alleud before returning to the countryside, which the hike hardly leaves until it returns to the foot of the Butte du Lion.

A very pretty 1½-hour circular route along quiet paths in the Sonian Forest, near the Folon Foundation and La Hulpe Castle. Absolutely peaceful for two-thirds of the route, though the section near the ring road is inevitably noisier. Relaxing and pleasant in all seasons. Particularly lovely when the wild garlic is in bloom. You may see and hear many birds.
