De Binche à Erquelinnes

On the Line 108 RAVeL

Family

14,5 km

Binche is well known to be the main city of the Gilles, the famous carnival characters. But there is more to this town than paving stones reverberating beneath stamping clogs. It is also a crossroads for soft travel… As well as the W3 regional route, which part of this RAVeL shares, Lines 109A and 109/1 are also to be found nearby.

To join them, Line 108 continues on its way to Fauroeulx and takes you as far as Erquelinnes, the intersection with the Sambre RAVeL and EuroVelo 3. All in an enchanting agricultural setting, including the well-known Agaises vineyard and its Ruffus cuvées.
