오레 주변 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

카테베르그는 오래된 노면 전차 노선을 따라 이어집니다. 만만치 않은 오르막이 여러분을 기다리고 있습니다. 역사적 배경: 이 반포장 자갈길은 과거 헹크의 석탄을 리에주의 산업 지역과 연결했던 노면 전차 노선 위에 있습니다. 노면 전차 노선 건설은 1908년에 시작되었습니다. 역과 레텐 마을 사이의 고도 차이를 극복하기 위해 700미터 거리에 카테베르그를 가로지르는 흙 제방이 건설되었습니다. 데머 강 위에는 석조 이중 아치교가 건설되었습니다. 증기 노면 전차는 1910년에 운행을 시작하여 이 지역의 승객 교통량을 엄청나게 증가시켰습니다. 노면 전차는 1948년 8월에 최종적으로 운행이 중단되었습니다. 노면 전차 선로는 1952년에 철거되었습니다. 이제 이곳은 레크리에이션을 즐기는 사람, 보행자, 자전거 이용자가 서로 만날 수 있는 경로입니다. 각자의 속도로 함께 즐기세요.

Café Coureur and their Lumberjack rides in both winter and summer are slowly becoming legendary: Lumberjack is one of the first gravel rides ever in Belgium. The rides are great and varied, the staff (Peter, Simon, Virze, and the team) are extremely friendly, and the afterparty with a BBQ and a fire is a must. Not to mention the beautiful café itself with photos and other cycling elements, and the cool Kwaremont beer… Just to be clear, I don't work for Café Coureur, but I am an avid gravel rider and have been riding the Lumberjack for many years.

In autumn, you feel like you're walking through a tunnel of vegetation. I recommend this passage.

Beautiful Chapel, unfortunately the crypt is closed

The lock system was built during the canal construction in the 1930s and includes three locks and a road bridge.

Great little nature reserve that has a lot to offer

The Gatehouse, together with the moated castle and the outer bailey, belong to the oldest parts: in the Apostles' House, remains of the late Gothic ordinance from the second half of the 16th century from the building campaign of Land Commander Wijnandt van Brijel have been preserved. The buildings are being restored or redesigned by Land Commander Caspar Anton van der Heyden de Belderbusch in 1755. The complex (Gatehouse, Apostles' House, Trumpeter's House) is located at the highest point of the domain, on the eastern side of the commandery. At the gate, seven avenues come together, as a symbol of the Seven Sorrows and Joys of Mary. (Inventory of Immovable Heritage)

In the Trumpet Building (formerly the gatekeeper's home), Trèscape, an escape room company, has now established itself with the escape room "The Lost Treasure of Alden Biesen". This was previously located in the cellars of the castle of Alden Biesen. Trèscape has also developed an "Escape walk". That's walking in a different way. 😉
