Description
Landscape Park de Merode is a region where man has always lived close to nature. Besides vast forests and beautiful moorlands, fertile fields, orchards and gardens today provide a generous basket full of delicious regional products. In farms, farm stores or workshops, the industrious inhabitants translate this close connection with their land into tasty or special products. These places are often hidden in the quiet countryside. Ideal for exploring by bike along car-free roads. The cycling routes in this booklet guide you along the most interesting addresses. Oh yes, leave with empty panniers, because they are guaranteed to be filled with deliciousness when you return!
With places of interest: Hoevewinkel Raf Patat, Hoeve Lievens-Blockx, Hoevewinkel Milk & More, Boerderij De Steenovens and De Aspergehoeve

Monday, September 25, 2023 by G.D.It is definitely not peaceful cycling. Lots of busy lanes where they don't drive slow. We thought we were biking more in nature, but the whole route is in civilization. We didn't find any local products either, just a jar of honey outside. We were so looking forward to it but arrived back at the end point very disappointed.
