You’ll set off from the beautiful, classicist Ter Rijst Castle in Pepingen for a bike ride through the authentic rural life of the Pajottenland. In Herne, you’ll pass a watermill on the Mark. Then you’ll cycle past farmhouses that look as if they were plucked straight from the books of Felix Timmermans or Ernest Claes. The hustle and bustle of city life is far away here. Other charming little properties also catch your eye, such as the U-shaped Den Dael Castle and the Ter Linden Chapel.
