The Réserve Naturelle des Décanteurs de la Sucrerie de Genappe is an important nature reserve in Genappe. It is the largest nature reserve in Brabant Wallon, with an area of 77 hectares.
This nature reserve was originally part of the old sugar factory of Genappe, and included several green areas and settling basins. It officially became a nature reserve in 2015.
The reserve is rich in biodiversity, with more than 200 bird species recorded in the last twenty years. This makes it one of the most important ornithological sites in Wallonia. The reserve is also home to several special vegetation communities.
The reserve is managed by the Department of Nature and Forests of the Walloon Region (DNF) with the collaboration of the ASBL Environnement Dyle.

Genappe Sugar Factory Silos

Highlight • Monument

The Ancienne sucrerie de Genappe is an important industrial heritage in the Genappe region.
The Genappe sugar factory was an important player in the sugar industry, mainly focused on the production of sugar from beets. After 134 years of activity, it closed its doors in 2004.
The enormous buildings and silos of the old sugar factory are now a prominent part of Genappe's landscape.
In addition to the large buildings, the site of the old sugar factory also includes dozens of hectares of green areas and settling basins.
In 2015, the nature reserve “Les Décanteurs de la Sucrerie de Genappe” was officially established. This nature reserve, which covers 77 hectares, is now the largest in Walloon Brabant.

Beautiful sunken road, where the cobblestones were replaced by two concrete strips. Towards Genappe it is nicely descending. 🙂
