Icon description route Description

So close to the city of Leuven and yet so surprisingly rural and green! You will discover the wooded Hageland Hills on this hike. You will step through deep hollow roads and discover the whimsical landscape and beautiful views of the Lindenbos, Chartreuzenbos and their surroundings. In the sloping Chartreuzenbos it is sometimes really climbing or descending towards the Wingevallei. Have a bite to eat in the tavern 'Bed van Napoleon', an old forester's house that the owner converted into a cozy restaurant and where, according to tradition, emperor Napoleon Bonaparte once spent the night.

Sunday, October 27, 2024 by P.P.Highly recommended! Perfectly marked, very quiet and varied, it is really enjoyable. Still not doable after a rainy period but it wasn't too bad after a week without too much rain.

Thursday, December 24, 2020 by A.S.Very nice walk through forest and field. Only now you really need to have good footwear on. In some places it is a mud puddle and you have to be very careful not to go under when going downhill. There were also many mountain bikers along the way.
