Ponds of Het Leen

Highlight • Lake

It is best to visit Het Leen during workdays because then you have the opportunity to use all paved roads and not just the main axis, where you can actually see little of the beautiful nature. There is also a cafeteria to eat something

Keigatbos

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

Less known and smaller than nearby Drongengoed, but there are some nice dirt roads/gravel paths and it is well worth including them in your route planning.

Field cross near Keigatbossen

Highlight • Religious Site

Near the Keigatbossen stands a field cross, surrounded by lime trees. It is said to date back to the 13th century, when Bishop Walter de Marvis demarcated the parish boundaries here. Once a resting place for travellers, it is now a landmark in the Drongengoed Landscape Park.

Keigatbos

Highlight • Forest

The Keigatbos is an atmospheric and varied nature reserve, where deciduous trees, open fields and winding paths alternate. This forest in the Flemish Ardennes offers numerous hiking trails along old pollard willows and rustic wooden fences, with here and there an open space full of wild flowers.

Schipdonk Canal Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The canal meanders through the Belgian countryside and offers beautiful views of the surrounding polders and fields. The cycle path along the canal is well maintained and often far removed from busy roads, making it perfect for a relaxing cycle ride.

Towpath Along the Lieve

Highlight • Cycleway

Between the fields towards Zomergem it is beautiful and pleasant cycling along the Lieve. This towpath along the Lieve can be followed from Zomergem to Belsele (just before Bierstalbrug)
