The Miners' Path is actually a hiking trail located in Ronse, East Flanders, Belgium. The path is part of the slow road walks of Ronse and is approximately 6.5 km long. The path starts at the intersection of Mr Beylsstraat and Rotterij and runs through the old railway line 87.

This path is named after those who frequently used it: Mijnwerkers, i.e. miners. Because there was little work in this area, many miners used to commute daily to the coal mines in the Borinage.
The path takes you through a beautiful, hilly landscape that more or less follows the course of the Zwalm river.

Bad tarmac that I won't recommend for inliners and longboarders, but nice landscape and surrounding.
