You’ll walk through the green Senne Valley to the gate of the magnificent Beersel Castle, the highlight of this walk. The castle still stands just as it did in the 15th century! Along the way, you’ll enjoy sweeping views of the Zenne Valley and the southwestern part of Brussels. In the center of Beersel, you can pass by the house of writer Herman Teirlinck, which is now a cultural center and community hub.
