Singletrack Trail in Lippelo Forest

Highlight (Segment) • MTB Park

There is a free heavy gate to get to it, but a little further you can just open it. Nice to do a few tours. Some curves, a few pump bumps and small licorice. All in all nicely done.

The Vliet Nature Park, Puurs

Highlight • Natural

On this route, you cycle or walk along the winding Vliet. Along the river lie beautiful stretches of nature.

You will discover nice gravel paths, resting places, and information boards that explain the natural beauty.

In the future, you will be able to enjoy a Sun deck or a Birdwatching trail in the Vliet Nature Park. The Meanderbrug is the construction that makes everything accessible.

Avenues in Buggenhout Forest

Beautiful gravel roads. It's pleasantly cool in the forest. You just have to be careful of the sharp turns on the gravel.

Boskapel Buggenhout

Highlight • Religious Site

The forest chapel has been Buggenhout's most famous monument for centuries. This 500 year old baroque chapel was built according to legend by Jacoba van Heffene to commemorate her husband Jan De Rijcke. He shot next to a wild boar during a hunting party, after which the animal turned on him. A memorial plaque in the chapel tells the story of the fateful accident.

De Boskapel is dedicated to Our Lady of Distress and is still today a place of rest and reflection. Around the chapel is a 15-station walk of rock sculptures.
