About water and landscapes

Description

The Zuidrand is bordered to the south by major rivers. This bike loop takes you along the waters of the valley of the Wullebeek and the Babbelse beek to the Nete and the Rupel. While cycling you will recognize the Old Railway embankment as an elongated green ribbon in the agricultural landscape. You cycle over this railroad embankment twice. From the highest point of Kontich and Waarloos, you cycle down towards the river Nete. Through the winding dikes you arrive at Provincial Recreation Domain De Schorre. In the valley of the Wullebeek the Reukenspad leads you right through the open landscape with alternating small-scale agriculture, forests, standard orchards, grazing meadows and hay meadows. Take a rest at the water playground of the Hessepoelbeel in Waarloos on a picnic bench along the water or in De Reukens.
