Description
A relatively flat bike loop that combines nature and heritage. You start at be-MINE, one of the best-preserved mining sites in Western Europe. The mine buildings, slag heaps and the experiential route of the old coal railroad impress. Along the way you pass woods, meadows, the Paalse Plas and the Albert Canal. In Leopoldsburg, Belgium's largest garrison city, you'll find the interactive WWII museum Liberation Garden. Here personal war stories come back to life.
