Wednesday, July 21, 2021 by P.D.Beautiful route. Part of the route was closed due to flooding. The route goes right through Leuven center where you have a view of the station, town hall,... Varied route between culture and nature.

Friday, May 3, 2019 by P.F.Some very nice stretches in this route. Where the route runs along waterways it can be crowded. There are a few unpaved sections in the route that are doable on a road bike. The signage is mostly very clear, occasionally some searching tgv works.
