Thursday, July 5, 2018 by Christine DegraveIf you want to cycle (in Belgium anyway ;-) a 44 km route, it is almost inevitable that you have to take a less pleasant or busier road somewhere, but here even that "busy" wasn't too bad. With these tropical temperatures, we were only too happy with the shaded roads! The route is perfectly signposted. 1 stretch of road was a bit more difficult to ride due to the sand, especially with a folding bike.

Tuesday, August 29, 2017 by H. .Nice route wide bike paths and most of it through wooded area,
which is an advantage in 29 degrees like today.

Friday, March 17, 2017 by F.T.route was disappointing. Parking starting point was not for cyclists parking disc required maximum 2 hours. Little traffic-free bike route and poor crossing places for bikes
Poor road signs in the city of Neerpelt
Not recommended worst route in 5 years
