AzureVery nice forest walk, 100% trails and paths. The departure is from the parking areas (due to the presence of schools), at the Château de la Solitude.
With its 5000 hectares (15 times the area of New York's Central Park), the Sonian Forest is spread over 3 provinces (Brussels and the two Brabants). Here, the whole walk is done on the territory of Auderghem and Watermael-Boitsfort.
