Description by the author

Search for a watercourse.

Although its valley is heavily urbanized, the Woluwe still flows largely in the open air, through many green areas that have been preserved, some of which even have Natura 2000 status due to the fauna and flora that inhabit them. The Woluwe is your guide on this walk in Sint-Lambrechts-Woluwe that leads through various parks, nature reserves, forests, and former rural areas, while also introducing you to a number of remarkable buildings. Along the way, you can see with your own eyes the concrete projects that have been carried out in recent years, such as the uncovering of the river, interventions to better capture rainwater, and various restoration works. All of these contribute to a reassessment of this exceptional corner of Brussels.

 

The stakeholders in the valley:

  • The municipality of Sint-Lambrechts-Woluwe manages the Malou and the Bronnenpark and the associated ponds. It is also the owner of Malou Castle and the windmill, which can be visited.

  • Leefmilieu Brussel is responsible for the management of the Woluwe and its tributaries. The service monitors water quality and flow rate and is responsible for maintenance works in the riverbed and on the banks. Leefmilieu Brussel also manages the walking route on the old railway bed. www.leefmilieu.brussels
  • CEBE - MOB is an NGO that advocates for environmental protection, heritage preservation, nature management, and the organization of activities related to nature and collective heritage. www.cebe.be
  • The Wolu-Inter-Quartiers association is the umbrella organization for the neighborhood committees of the municipality. It has considered the role of surface water in the valley in the management of flooding, and the enhancement of the landscape. http://wiq.be
