De Seneffe à Court-Saint-Etienne
Starting in the commune of Seneffe, in the province of Hainaut, this route takes you along the Line 141 pre-RAVeL and RAVeL through the centre of the province of Walloon Brabant. It is often wooded, but through openings in the trees you can admire the vast stretches of the surrounding countryside.
All along the route you will discover elements of the region’s wealth of history: the Château of Seneffe, the Eiffel bridge in Arquennes, the centre of Nivelles, the sites of the old Genappe sugar refinery and of the old Henricot de Court-St-Etienne metalworking plants.
