Bunker and avenue at Puyenbroeck Estate

Highlight (Segment) • Historical Site

At the beginning of this segment is a bunker housing bats. From here it is a long paved lane that is a nice link to the Puyenbroeck domain.

Please do not drive. The section between Oostakker including Puyenbroek is nice off-road, but after that it's all away towards Oostakker. So very boring... it's of no use to you as a mountain biker!

A lot of road, muddy strips in Domain Puyenbroek, and the jungle of Oostakker (path at the back of Katoennatie) is about to become impenetrable, unless you like to be nuzzled from head to toe! If I knew in advance... a "leave it alone" proposal...
