Senne River

A visit to the Senne River can complement a day spent exploring Brussels. Once an open waterway central to the city's development, it was covered in the 19th century for flood control and sanitation. Today, you can find sections restored, featuring pleasant walking paths alongside its banks. Spring and summer are ideal for leisurely strolls while observing local wildlife, including ducks, herons, and various water birds. The river's historical significance adds an intriguing layer to the experience, enriching your understanding of Brussels' evolution over time.
