You’ll cycle along quiet, often unpaved paths through the most beautiful Bruegel landscapes and the rolling hills of the Pajot region. You’ll tackle quite a few meters of elevation gain, but your efforts will be rewarded with a refreshing drink at a charming village café. Along the way, you’ll pass the Coloma Rose Garden, the castles of Beersel and Gaasbeek, the Lindemans, Oud-Beersel, and Boon breweries, and the impressive Bree-Eik square farmstead. Take in the scents of the Hallerbos and the elegant Park ter Rijst. The best view of the Brussels skyline is from Sanatoriumstraat in Beersel.
