Orneau
The Orneau is a river in Belgium. It is a tributary of the Sambre and therefore sub-tributary of the Meuse. The Orneau flows from north to south, through the province of Namur, and after a journey of about 25 kilometres, it flows into the Sambre at Jemeppe-sur-Sambre.| Tap on a place to explore it |
