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.

like a little trip to the moon...

Here we find ourselves at a modern technical structure of almost unimaginable dimensions. This enormous facility – like probably every project of this magnitude – has two aspects: Some may be in awe of the engineering that made it possible to plan and build this gigantic structure at the end of the 20th century. Others may be more concerned with the enormous intervention in nature that was necessary to realize the project and may doubt its usefulness. However, such a conflict of interest is by no means only a sign of the times, for the monumental – some might prefer the term monstrous – structure is the modern descendant of a series of significantly smaller ship lifts that were built in earlier times – and have now even been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site as an industrial monument. Both the old facility and its modern successor are presented in a 15-minute feature (in German) in the series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity."

Very smooth and pleasant path

Lift No.4 on the old Canal du Centre at Le Roeulx is a beautifully preserved boat lift from the early 20th century, and a masterpiece of industrial architecture. Made from steel and sheet metal, this historic lift lifts boats between different water levels and remains an impressive sight in the landscape. A visit to this unique UNESCO World Heritage site offers a fascinating insight into the engineering feats of yesteryear and the rich history of Hainaut’s waterways.

The Bois d'Havré, located on the outskirts of Mons, is a 250 hectare forest which was once part of the domain of the Dukes of Havré. This historic and natural site constitutes a real green lung for the region. It is home to a variety of tree species such as oaks, ash, cherry, larch and pine. The wood is also a popular place for hiking, cycling and horse riding thanks to its marked trails and a VITA track.

The name “Sars” comes from the Latin “Sartum”, meaning a cleared place, emphasizing its agricultural vocation. Sars-la-Bruyère is crossed by an old Roman road linking Bavay to Utrecht. The keep of Sars-la-Bruyère, dating from the 13th century, is one of the oldest medieval remains in the region.
