De Souvret (Courcelles) à Roux

On the RAVeL of Lines 112A and 266

Family

6 km

This stretch carries on towards the west of the La Houillère RAVeL (Line 119), which it joins on the bridge over the Charleroi-Brussels canal in Roux.
It will help us - a little - to overcome the industrial image of the Black Country. Of course, we are not going to ignore the slag heaps, unmistakable reminders of this region’s mining past, or the urban side of our sections of the RAVeL in Charleroi, but… starting from the village of Souvret means starting our trip in the countryside, and that’s rather soothing, isn’t it?
