This is a 10 km route through the countryside around the village of Laneffe, with a few wooded sections along beautiful paths. There is a large car park at the starting point. The walk begins by following part of the "Tour St-Eloi". This is the route taken by the St-Eloi procession during the village's traditional folk walk. From (4), it continues towards the heights of the village, where you can see the surroundings towards Charleroi. The end of the route gives pride of place to the green countryside before returning to the village.

At the start, the hike offers an outdoor visit to the Château d'Ham-sur-Heure and the Sentier des Prairies du Château, which leads to the station, passing close to a waterfall and a half-bridge over the Eau d'Heure. After the station, the hike takes you over hill and dale through the forest for about 4.5 km before moving decisively into the countryside until you return to Ham-sur-Heure.

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 take care not to use paths or forest tracks that are closed to the public (to allow wildlife to rest).

A pleasant circular walk in the woods near Charleroi. Discover part of the Eau d'Heure valley and the charming village of Jamioulx. The Eau d'Heure is a small river that flows into the Sambre at Marchienne-au-Pont. It gets its name from its unique ability to rise in an hour and fall just as quickly.

A little countryside, a little forest, a little town, a little of the Sambre with a lock and an old drawbridge, the Abbey of Aulne, Thuin, Hourpes, its strange castle and lots of forest to finish off – that's what's on the programme for this walk.

Enjoy this beautiful, peaceful hike with a few hills between countryside, woods and rivers. For those who would like a few extra kilometres, see my other hike in the same area (No. 6600390).

Whatever the season, this route will allow you to discover the splendours of the Bois du Grand Fréchy, all along the Ruisseau de l'Étang du Diable. A truly exotic route despite its short distance. I suggest another route in the same area: "Around the Bois du Grand Fréchy" (17 km). See hunting dates below

A walk for those nostalgic for the little mountains, with their valleys, plateaus and streams spanned by old stone bridges. A walk for lovers of calm and nature. And as a gift for children, lots of animals: hens, roosters, ducks, buzzards, goats, sheep and, with a little patience, squirrels and roe deer in the woods... A visit to the Tower will bring a hint of culture.
