Dourのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Between point 6, the Sauwartan site, and point 7, there are now no-entry signs. From point 6, leave the woods and join an asphalt road, take the first right and follow it to point 7.

With family or alone... It's pretty!

Worth walking in this region.

Several wind artworks along the cemetery. It's really fun!

Beautiful wind tree on the sentier de Lamina

The Sauwartan mine was closed early on 6 October 1938. Traces of exploitation, all that remain today are the concrete main frame, which guards the entrance to the Bois de Colfontaine in the manner of a sleeping ancient dragon. This unexpected sight will certainly touch the visitor. http://borinage.blogspot.com/p/13-juin-2011-charbonnage-de-sauwartan.html

The Borinage is inextricably linked to a prestigious industrial past that created a lot of wealth in Europe. A number of small railway lines were built to transport both labor and coal. These lines have now been transformed into beautiful RAVeL routes. These four routes of the RAVeL of the Borinage (Lines 98,98A, 98B and 98C) will take you into different atmospheres in no time. You drive from a heavily urbanized and industrial region to wooded zones and agricultural areas. You will be amazed! On the one hand you cycle between the coal slag heaps, but you also visit cultural places that were visited by Van Gogh and Verhaeren. In short, a bike tour full of surprises! Adventurers can also cycle on the short Line 98B, between Warquignies and Boussu. We propose 3 stages, which are not connected to each other, but can be combined: Line 98, the Borinage hills, between Cuesmes and Quiévrain Line 98A, the RAVeL of the 'Hauts-Pays', between Dour and Onnezies. Line 98C, between Frameries and Hornu. https://ravel.wallonie.be/nl/home/itineraires/local/lignes-98-du-borinage.html

Beautiful nature, with a bit of history in the area!
