Description
Only point in the heart of Roman Païs offering a general view of the three canals forming the Brussels-Charleroi canal, the "Bras Mort" (Dead arm) is a haven of peace for walkers as well as for the fauna and flora that grow there in complete tranquillity.
While the Brussels-Charleroi canal supports its incessant traffic of barges that, despite their nonchalant air, are testimony to the sustained economic activity developing there, its dead arm is completely calm, and it’s well worth allowing yourself to drift along there according to your mood.
A bird sanctuary in the form of a small island, framed by two idling canals which take life easy, like the birds which have chosen to live there, reveals a free and luxuriant nature, surreptitiously guided by permanent care and knowhow.
In this part of the canal, nature has regained its rights over the old canals and its activities. It is a timeless place where one can recharge batteries, as nature is all around.
This magical environment with its changeable colours and atmospheres according to the whims of the seasons or the heavens cannot fail to make an impression on the stroller. Whether it inspires meditation, romanticism or just a stroll, you live an unforgettable moment.
