The little St. Joseph Chapel near Horst Castle is said to be the most photographed chapel in Flanders. And you can see why right away: it stands in the middle of the fields under a centuries-old linden tree. This walk has even more beauty in store: Horst Castle itself, of course, the beech-lined avenues of the Troostemberg Forest, sunken roads, the Thunenhoeve, and the centuries-old Gempemolen—now a charming brasserie. Along the way, you’ll be treated to beautiful views of the Winge Valley.
