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 will get a taste of Belgium's past, but you will also get to see some 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.

Partly nice asphalt, a large part covered with concrete slabs - really hard on the wrists.
