The expansive landscape of Geetbets beckons you to take a delightful walk in the countryside. You’ll follow the car-free bike and walking path along the old Tienen-Diest railroad right-of-way for a while, taking in one beautiful building after another. The highlights are undoubtedly Geetbets Castle, nestled in the countryside, and the St. Rochus Chapel, dating from 1542. You’ll also pass “the old dairy” from 1902 and Vlierbeek Castle, an old abbey farm with an English garden.
