The Wijndries hillside was once planted with grapevines, as were many other hillsides in this Hageland wine region. Today, this part of the rolling landscape is dotted with fruit orchards, and you can enjoy the beautiful views and the silence. From the top of the hill, you can even see the Basilica of Scherpenheuvel. Along the way, visit the Chapel of Saint Anthony of Padua, patron saint of bakers, pilgrims, potters, lovers, and donkeys.
