Icon description route Description

A surprisingly rural walk yet close to the hustle and bustle of Brussels. You will literally step next to the Ring with the monotonous roar of cars, while overlooking the fields of Grimbergen. For a while, you'll be following the Maelbeek until you reach the 's Gravenmolen, the oldest water mill in the municipality. The Hof ter Weerdestraat is an important historical street where a walled castle and two large tenements used to stand. The castle has disappeared, but the two courts are still there: Hof ter Weerde and the Spiegelhof. Both ancient and protected as monuments.

NOTE: This is a walk on a virtual walking network. The nodes are not signposted on the property. Follow the 6-sided red and white signs with the name of the hike.
