アウト・ヘフェルレーのおすすめランニングルート

At a moderate speed you can fully enjoy the Brabantse Woud.

Very pleasant trails, especially for gravel riding. These trails also hosted the 2023 European Gravel Championships (won by Jasper Stuyven, a rider from this region, and Lorena Wiebes) and the Gravel World Championships (won by Mathieu van der Poel and Marianne Vos).

The arboretum in Heverlee is the starting point of the so-called path of Ad, which is no less than 26.2 km long, where you will discover forest figures by tree artist Ad Wouters in various places. Officially it is called: "Soft bears, mischievous gnomes, modern Neanderthals, metre-high mushrooms and other playful figures turn the Meerdaalwoud and the Heverleebos into real fairytale forests. The wooden sculptures are the work of local tree artist Ad Wouters and turn your walk into a fun quest full of wonder. Ad cuts the forest figures from the trunks of dead oaks."

In 1652, in the middle of the Meerdaalwoud, Lord van Steenbergen had a chapel built on the site where there had previously been a miraculous statue of Mary who cured people suffering from marsh fever.

This beautiful sunken path to the Zoete Waters near Oud-Heverlee is a dream route for mountain bikers, with its narrow passage surrounded by high, moss-covered verges and shady trees. The path winds and challenges you with short climbs and loose sections, where you can fully enjoy the peace and natural beauty of Flemish Brabant.

Since 2024, the poor asphalt has been broken up and replaced by a gravel path over the entire length of the Weertse Dreef for the Gravel World Cup and the natural value.
