Wayai Stream

Highlight • River

Taking its sources on the heights of Spa near the aerodrome, in the forest called Bois des vieilles fagnes 4 kilometers south of the hamlet of Wayai, it crosses the town of Spa, receives the Eau Rouge at Marteau, the Chawion stream then joins Theux where it flows into the Hoëgne. Spa having suffered in the past many catastrophic floods, the Warfaaz lake was created upstream to regulate the flow of the river. Since 1880 its course has been partially covered in the crossing of the town of Spa.

René Toussaint Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The fourth small bridge, very close to the Orléans monument, is dedicated to René Toussaint (1902-1971). This landscape artist lived almost his entire life at the source of the Sauvenière, which he ran with his wife. He mainly painted the Malchamps fens and especially the undergrowth around the Sauvenière and the Hoëgne.
