Drève du Comte - Graafdreef

Drève du Comte - Graafdreef, Tree-lined avenue in Watermael-Boitsfort, Belgium.

Drève du Comte, or Graafdreef, is a straight tree-lined avenue in the Forêt de Soignes, on the territory of Uccle and Watermael-Boitsfort. Tall, straight trunks stand in parallel rows along a path carpeted with reddish-brown fallen leaves, and a low wooden barrier with a horizontal rail crosses the path near its start. The avenue leads, among other places, to the Étangs des Enfants Noyés.

The drève is a formal avenue of the Sonian Forest, laid out in the 17th century as part of the forest's network of straight rides. Its French name and Dutch equivalent Graafdreef ("count's avenue") recall the Counts of Hainaut, who held rights over the forest. It leads, among other points, to the Enfants Noyés ponds.

The avenue's name exists in both French and Dutch: drève du Comte and Graafdreef, "count's avenue". It is a drève, a straight tree-lined lane of the Sonian Forest type, and it leads among other places to the Étangs des Enfants Noyés, the ponds that walkers along the path reach at its end.

The avenue is well accessible with connections to several public transport stops and Boitsfort Station for regional travel. Visitors are best served wearing comfortable shoes, as exploring the entire length requires time and stamina.

The drève is named in both French and Dutch, Graafdreef, and runs through the Sonian Forest between Uccle and Watermael-Boitsfort, leading among other points to the Étangs des Enfants Noyés. A cut stump with exposed roots stands at the edge of the leaf-covered path, behind a low wooden barrier.
