Description
The vineyard terraces on the Houwaartseberg have a southern European flair, and the wineries along your route are happy to let you sample their Hageland wines. You’ll pass through a string of Hageland villages—such as Bekkevoort, Assent, Waanrode, and Molenbeek-Wersbeek—until you reach the Vlooyberg Tower in Tielt-Winge. This imposing, floating staircase made of rust-brown Corten steel offers a stunning panoramic view. Its color is a reference to the iron sandstone in the subsoil—the secret behind Hageland wine.

Saturday, May 23, 2026 by Marc Van EepoelThe route is a letdown; there’s way too much car traffic, a lot of noise from the highway you’re cycling alongside, and the rest of the way is along residential streets where there’s nothing to see.
