St. Stephen’s Church, your starting point, is home to a unique organ built by the Leuven-based organ builder Jan Wauters. You’ll walk up the Grevelberg, and shortly afterward you can wander through the Torfbroek marsh, an area known as Flanders’ oldest nature reserve. Pass by the Listerhoeve, the oldest surviving house in Nederokkerzeel, dating back to 1519. Every now and then, an airplane roars overhead on its way to Brussels Airport, which is a little further on.
