Description
The orange Koebos walk takes you as far as the Herendaalhoeve, one of the largest and oldest farms in the Hageland. This abbey farm dates back to the 13th century and was founded by the lords of Park Abbey in Heverlee. It is to these "lords" that the farm owes its name. After various stormings, fires and destruction over the years, the farm was gradually rebuilt. The landscape adjacent to the farm is called 'hell'. The word "hell" can be thought of as a dark, unknown depth, or come from the word slope, as the farmstead is in fact located atop a steep, wooded slope at the edge of the plateau.

Sunday, May 16, 2021 by Sandy SeghersExpectations were low because of major traffic axes in the neighborhood, but this hike was FAN-TAS-TIC. Beautiful green surroundings with lovely views and wonderful peace and quiet. Houses, as if time stood still, with neat neat vegetable gardens that made me reminisce about the time with my grandparents who plowed in 'den hof'. TOP!
