Cycle path along the Dessel-Turnhout-Schoten Canal

Every day many walkers and cyclists pass along the canal towpath. De Vaart offers them a smooth journey to work, a quiet bike ride among friends or a pleasant walk on a car-free route. Obvious? Nope. Because, although the canal is 'just' a fact for us, it was desperately needed for our Kempen ancestors.

Along the 'de vaArt' route we take you into the past and also the present of the Dessel-Turnhout-Schoten canal. From murals to an XL postcard from the old box: artistic objects at ten locations along the Dessel-Turnhout-Schoten Canal will now visualize the story of this remarkable canal. You can find the full stories via the free app izi.travel, route de vaART.

Distance
