A bike ride through the vast landscape of the farthest tip of the Pajottenland, following the Mark River. You’ll pass water mills, farmhouses, churches, and chapels. As you climb the Congoberg, you can admire Koenraad Tinel’s sculpture “The Abduction of Europa.” And be sure to stop for a moment at the statue of Urbanus or at the Baljuwtuin in Galmaarden.
