Follow the banks of the Zenne to the De Donk nature area, a birdwatcher’s paradise near Releghem Castle. This castle is by far the most beautiful building along your route. The current building dates from the 18th century, but a castle already stood on this site in the 14th century. Walk through Dasmusveld and along Haneweg to the spot where a windmill once stood and enjoy the view.
Before you set out: This is a walk on a virtual walking network. The junctions are not marked on the ground. Follow the hexagonal red-and-white signs bearing the name of the walk.
