Your varied journey through the land of the Demer and Dijle rivers begins at “De Plas van Rotselaar” and takes you along mostly traffic-free paths and rustic roads to the picturesque village center of Wakkerzeel. Fields and meadows then lead you to Werchter, where the two rivers converge just a stone’s throw from the country’s most famous rock festival venue. On the way back to De Plas, you’ll follow the Demerdijk and pass the Demertrefplaats, with its elevated path winding through the canopy of the old oak trees.
