Icon description route Description

Park for free at the sports center of Vorselaar.

Proceed immediately towards the magnificent 13th-century castle with its accompanying beech and lime tree avenues that are oriented towards the surrounding parish churches. In autumn, you can find large mushrooms in this beautiful private domain which is open to the public.

Via the Vispluk with its farm moved to Bokrijk (drinks available at point 3) and along the Lilse footpath, you take the authentically restored path to Lille from 2014. Paths along fields and meadows with beautiful vistas lead you to the edge of the damp Visbeek Valley. You can extend the route by about 4 km from point 52 (via 51-54-58-59-60), but boots are indispensable then.

After the sandy paths, a few stretches of asphalt interspersed with forest paths lead you back into the castle grounds via the eastern side. You can finish at the sports café De Dreef near the parking lot.

Hiking boots necessary. Dogs welcome on a leash. Reversing the route is certainly possible!
