Discover the most beautiful spot in the municipality of Bekkevoort in the Begijnenbeek Valley: the Wissembeemd. A hidden gem surrounded by nature where it’s wonderfully peaceful. Continue your walk around the nearly 80-meter-high Hermansheuvel, a hill with a rich history. The hill’s summit rises more than 35 meters above the surrounding area, offering a stunning panoramic view of the green Begijnenbeek Valley, which stretches all the way to Diest.
