Along castle, greenery and water

Description

Park at Groenstraat 11 in Elzestraat.

(Alternative station St. Kat. Waver point 334)

You start at the protected village view of the stately castle St. Michiels and go through the park in search of 't Grom. This is a museum, built around the themes of vegetables, healthy eating, and horticultural heritage, housed in the Midzeelhoeve at junction 228.

After the longest stretch of public road, you reach the Goorbosbeek valley with the info house De Mosterdpot of Natuurpunt, where you can learn all about the patchwork of habitats present here.

Via junctions 4 and 5 you can visit the Fort of Duffel with its cozy brasserie.

Back at point 2, you continue along the banks of the Nete around the Domain Roosendael, which, with its restored buildings, nature, and bicycle/pedestrian café, is certainly worth some extra time.

Finally, you return to Elzestraat via the old elevated railway embankment, which now forms a green zone. Here, you can take one last drink break.

Dogs welcome on a lead.
