With the mecca of rock music as your destination, you’ll cycle through the land of the Demer and the Dijle. You’ll pass the “Plas van Rotselaar” and the medieval Ter Heide Tower, the fortified Kraneveldhoeve, the Leuven-Dijle Canal and the Dijle River itself, the Wijgmaalbroek nature reserve, and many other sights. You’ll cycle along Bondgenotenlaan to the historic heart of Leuven, so be sure to take your time there for a well-deserved break.
