The Roubaix Canal, or the Espierres Canal, as it's called in French or Belgian, forms part of the link between the Deûle River in France and the Scheldt River in Belgium. In 1843, the two canals were connected between Leers, France, and Leers-Nord, Belgium. Despite damage sustained during the two world wars, the canal was the pinnacle of the region's textile industry for over a hundred years, transporting coal from Belgium to numerous French factories. In Leers-Nord, Belgium, the workers who pulled the coal-laden barges were called "satcheux" (sailors). Next to the lock keeper's house, a stone's throw from France, the crossing point between France and Belgium, a customs guardhouse was built. Customs officers were present to inspect the numerous goods transported by barge. After the decline of the textile industry in the 1970s and 1980s, the canal gradually lost its usefulness and was closed to shipping in 1983. In the early 2000s, the canal was the subject of a cross-border rehabilitation project to allow tourist boats to pass through again. As part of the Interreg Blue Links project, a collaboration between France, Flanders, and Wallonia, it was flooded again. The final works were completed in 2011, and navigation reopened. Since the early 20th century, the Roubaix/Espierres Canal has been a place of conviviality, walking, and fishing for cross-border residents and commuters. Consequently, strong public opposition has arisen to the plan to convert the canal into a motorway. Source: www.caue-nord.com

Crowded, but still very nice and quiet, you do not feel like being in Vlaanderen.

Relax in nature

I like it, as it has an original architecture, and it is a point where you can choose in between at least 5 nice rides.

The forest is right on our language border. Don't be a stranger to our non-Dutch speaking compatriots: feel free to cross this imaginary line during your walk. Peeping at your neighbours won't kill you! What's more: it will make you a more complete person. In open spaces you can enjoy views of the Walloon landscape. It's something different from the Flemish Ardennes, in between. A welcome addition to an already particularly rich range of landscapes on your trip. (East Flanders Tourism)

The Kluisbos is a nature reserve, partly a domain forest and partly a public forest, in the Flemish Ardennes in South-East Flanders and the Pays des Collines in Hainaut (Belgium). The Kluisbos is a forest with a rich relief and is located on the flank of the witness hill De Kluisberg. It is approximately 300 hectares in size. The Flemish part is 200 hectares in size and is located on the territory of the municipality of Kluisbergen (sub-municipalities Ruien and Kwaremont). The Walloon part (Bois de l'Enclus) is 100 hectares in size and is located on the territory of the sub-municipalities: Rozenaken, Orroir and Amougies in the Pays des Collines region. The Flemish part of the forest is managed by the government agency Agency for Nature and Forests. Since 2006, a 50-hectare part has been designated as a forest reserve.
