Green and peaceful walks around Charleroi

Nature and discovery

Green routes around the Pays Noir

HIKING & CYCLING

The RAVeL network (Autonomous Network of Slow Ways) connects the paths and former railway lines of the Pays Noir, offering kilometres of marked routes for walkers and cyclists.
From the hotel, it’s easy to reach these trails and head toward Thuin, the Abbey of Aulne, or even Charleroi’s city centre.
