This used to be a recreational area where you could swim and such

Situated in the Flemish nature reserve De Pinnekensweier/Pinnekenswijer, at the end of a path from the fen through the heath to the sandy road - and therefore on the sandy road itself.

The Gerhagen domain is the green lung of Tessenderlo, has a surface of 945 hectares and is, together with the Merode forests, one of the largest contiguous forest complexes in Flanders. So an ideal walking environment.

At the Averbode Abbey you will find the Lekdreef. In this car-free street there are ice cream carts during the summer months. Sit down on a bench along the avenue and enjoy an ice cream in the middle of nature. Did you know that the most popular walking junction in Flanders, junction 100, is located in this street?

Be sure to bring your binoculars so you can better spot the water birds and watch their antics
