Discover the green and unpaved Kessel-Lo

Description

Park at the youth football center Domeinstraat 61 (free) or at P1 of the Provincial Domain (paid). Or come by train and walk out the back of Leuven station to find yourself at your starting point in no time. You will be amazed at how green it is and how many unpaved paths there are around Kessel-Lo.

You navigate the gravel paths along the ponds of the domain and seek out the 900-year-old abbey of Vlierbeek. Via low-traffic roads and the rolling landscape of the Wijnberg, you enter the Chartreuzen Forest with its mighty trees and sometimes steep hollow paths.

In Holsbeek village, you can grab a snack/drink before starting the spicy but beautiful part of the Sint-Gertrudisbos and Kesselberg. The old trees and unpaved (hollow) paths uphill and downhill greet you.

You end the route through the green Provincial Domain. High walking shoes are needed after wet weather. Dogs are welcome on a leash. Enjoy the views from the various benches.
