Starting at the impressive Affligem Abbey, you’ll cycle through a rolling stretch of greenery in the Brabantse Kouters, just a stone’s throw from Brussels. You’ll pass through what was, for centuries, one of Europe’s richest hop-growing regions. You’ll cycle past the picturesque hop field in Asse and follow the edge of the Kravaalbos. At the market square in Asse, it’s time for a break. There, you’ll come face to face with the Hopduvel.
