You’ll walk through row after row of orchards. This part of Glabbeek has the largest area dedicated to fruit cultivation. It’s a magnificent sight during the blooming season, when the apple and pear trees paint the entire region in shades of white and pink. The Church of the Nativity of Our Lady in Kapellen, your starting point, is said to have been founded by Pepijn van Landen. Enjoy the beauty of the Steenbeek Valley, a stunning natural area.
