Icon description route Description

Departure: parking Château of Seneffe - Rue Lucien Plasman 7 - 7180 Seneffe

This magnificent château with its well-maintained gardens was plundered by local residents after World War II and fell into disrepair. In 1969, it was saved at the last minute and restored by the Belgian state. The domain is open daily: the park and gardens are freely accessible, but there is an admission fee to visit the château.

The first kilometer of the walk, the road beside the château, is quite busy. Thereafter, you follow quiet country lanes and small hamlets with just a handful of houses.

At the bridge over the canal, we take a steep and slippery path in wet weather under the bridge to the towpath. Walking sticks can be quite useful here. The walk continues along the old Brussels–Charleroi canal and offers stunning views of the water and surrounding greenery along the way.
