Brussels–Charleroi Canal Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The Charleroi-Brussels canal is of historical and geographical importance for the development of the coal mines and metal industry in Belgium. With this route you can breathe in the past of Belgium, but you also get to see a few remarkable constructions such as the technological masterpiece the Inclined Plane of Ronquières.
Because the ride is 100% along the canal, you will not be bothered by climbing meters. The trail is not in perfect condition everywhere, but it is paved everywhere.

Charleroi-Brussels Canal

Highlight (Segment) • River

The Charleroi Canal is an elementary axis of our Brussels landscape. Created for economic reasons in the first half of the 19th century, it aimed to convey raw materials from southern Belgium to Brussels for processing in the myriad factories and industries located along its route.

Having become, over time and with deindustrialisation, a dividing line between neighborhoods and an area of economic gloom, many projects today aim to remake the canal into the "river of Brussels" or at the very least, a link between the different municipalities of Brussels via, in particular, the ambitious CANAL plan.

Wilderbos

Highlight • Forest

The Wilderbos is a beautiful and varied nature reserve in Flemish Brabant, characterized by a combination of deciduous forest, open fields and wet grasslands. This area is rich in biodiversity, with a range of plants and animals, including rare orchids and numerous bird species that choose the forest as a habitat.

King Baudouin Park

Highlight • Natural

Originally, a highway was planned for this location. But in 1977, the municipality of Jette decided to develop a park in the Molenbeek valley. The idea was to create a northern counterpart to the Forêt de Soignes (to the south), and to the parks of the Woluwe valley (east of Brussels).

On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the monarchy in 1980, the park was named after King Baudouin.

Ganshoren Marsh

Highlight • Natural

Very nice site.
Unfortunately, this connects to the bicycle motorway Asse-Zellik-Brussels and you have a concentration of many users. Hikers, runners, cyclists, recreationists and children playing.

Osseghem Park

Highlight • Natural

This park is tailored to young people. You will find sports facilities such as the mini golf course, the tennis, basketball and football fields and courts for skateboarders and inline skaters. There are playgrounds for children from 2 to 6 years old, from 5 to 12 years old and over 10 years old. All this around the main element, a playground for children with reduced mobility.

Laeken Watercress Farm

Highlight • Structure

Between Laeken Castle and Schaerbeek station, King Leopold II had a plan to create a railway line. But this never saw the light of day.

Instead, shortly after the First World War, it was a cresiculturist who planted seeds and had a bountiful harvest. Since then, the so-called royal watercress has survived the years. Despite a long break of 20 years, it is now coming back to life thanks to an urban market gardening project.
