The cycle path along the canal is well maintained and takes you through a quiet and green area. Along the banks of the canal you cycle through vast nature reserves and quiet villages, where you can fully enjoy the panoramic view of the water and the surrounding fields. In the summer months you can see the liveliness of the canal itself, with boats and ships sailing by.

Even if the route along the canal isn't the shortest option, for example, for getting from Aachen to Zeeland, it's definitely a much more pleasant ride than taking the direct route through the Herentals, Malles, or Brechts. Great surface practically everywhere, no cars, and especially if you have a tailwind...
