What else could you ask for?If you set off at daybreak, you might see a few partridges fly in, encounter a few rabbits and maybe even some hares.

The route begins in the forest, with birdwatching available from observation posts. Then the landscape becomes more undulous as you climb Slag heap 115 (viewpoint over the coalfield) and return via the miners' cottages.

It’s a lovely little route through an urban park, which may seem ordinary but has its own charm. Just behind Kinépolis and almost car-free. Lomme Park is densely wooded, with a lake and some gentle hills. Personally, I really like this spot and often walk there, either forwards or backwards, for the peace and quiet. Allow between 45 minutes and an hour without breaks, walking at a leisurely pace.
