Just when you think you've had the toughest part by now, you turn the corner and another incline awaits. What will it be this time? A singletrack through the woods? A narrow concrete track? A cobblestone lane? A gravel path? Or a climb from the world championship course? Each path is different from the previous one.
Even the panorama changes all the time. Then you pedal through open fields, a little further you dive into the forest or meander through the village at speed. The only constant is that the route is never really flat. Your sore calves are not given a moment's rest. And when the cobblestones of Moskesstraat - maximum gradient 17% - loom before you, you may not be able to suppress an inner curse. Did we mention that you will conquer all the World Cup slopes? This is pure enjoyment for the experienced gravel biker!
This route is offered by Tourism Vlaams-Brabant vzw in collaboration with 666Gravel.

Monday, August 19, 2024 by Piet DejongheWith the exception of one bit not so far from Leuven (you get sent into a patat field and that's how you get yourself stuck) this is a beauty of a route, very little asphalt and lots of beauty shoved under your wheels.
