Just like winner Mathieu van der Poel, push your legs to the limit and ride your own Gravel World Championship through the heart of the Brabantse Wouden National Park. This route follows 95% of the race course that the riders rode on October 6, 2024. You can also shorten the route and choose one of the loops, or ride the entire route from Halle to Leuven, through the Hallerbos, the Sonian Forest, the Dyle Valley, and the Heverleebos and Meerdaalwoud forest complex.
This route was developed in collaboration with the cities of Halle and Leuven, the Agency for Nature and Forests, and Golazo.
