CYCLING THROUGH A MOSAIC OF PONDS
2
START
On this flat route, you explore mining heritage and De Wijers, land of 1001 ponds. From De Teut nature reserve, the old coal track takes you towards Zonhoven, the green centre of De Wijers. Further on, you end up in Bokrijk, where you cycle right through the water. Next stop: take a break on the pleasant terrace of Domain Kiewit, while the kids have fun in the petting zoo and playground. The route continues over the Albert Canal to the Herkenrode Abbey Site. The stunning nature will continue to delight you: ponds, fens, dunes, forests and heathland as far as you can see.
