Description
In the Pajottenland, more specifically the Zenne Valley, lambic and geuze are ubiquitous. To sweeten the sour taste of gueuze or lambic, people used to use a "lambiekstoemper" to crumble a sugar cube into the glass. On this hike, be sure to try these typical beers in one of the cafes along the way. Also discover the quiet Zenne trail along the Eizingen mill site and the play forest. Buizingen has always been a wooded place, but especially the Kluisbos is ideal to get some healthy air. Hence the former presence of sanatoria and the children's sanatorium for tuberculosis patients near these woods. Take a stroll inside the Saint Vincent Church, also called the church without the tower. Although the tower was never completed and the church therefore has no spire, Buizingen can be proud of the listed 18th century Van Peteghem organ. Catch your breath at the brewery Den Herberg of the Devillé family, where they have been brewing the most delicious beers since 2007. Since recently they also serve an Old Devillé Geuze and a tender Herberg Lambic. Where else but in the Zenne Valley should you taste a lambic.

Monday, October 2, 2023 by Sonny Samynnice route, too bad it is not signposted. one needs a mobile device to find the way, and that goes against my principles to make a nice hike. you always have to consult a gps and I find following the signs with free hands much more pleasant than constantly checking on your mobile device if you are on the route

Sunday, October 1, 2023 by M.P.Not well signposted at all. We started at node 396. We didn't see junction 6. Using plan, I knew it was along peereboom street. But then we didn't find junction 617 either. I had printed map but it was not detailed enough with the street names.

Friday, November 10, 2023 by T.H.The territory of Halle is only partially marked with physical hiking node signs (hiking network Pajottenland). The remaining part of the territory (walking network Zennevallei) has been extended with virtual nodes since September. Purple node = virtual; red = physical sign.
