Description
The Great Struis Creek and its side streams meander through the landscape. Along the bike loop you can enjoy vistas of this valley at several spots. In the southern edge you will find several centuries-old castles such as castle domain Cleydael and former courts of plaisance. Observe their towers through the greenery of the castle parks. Castle park Solhof is worth a short break. The castle became a hotel and the beautiful English garden is an oasis of tranquility. Picnicking and romping in the greenery can be done in Park Neerland or the Cleydaelbos. Stop off at the Edegemse beekvallei for a delicious farm ice cream.

Sunday, August 9, 2026 by Paul PintensThe route is very unclear and poorly marked. It urgently needs to be reviewed.

Monday, August 3, 2026 by Greet RoyersToo bad the GPS doesn't pick up the detours. Especially for NT 32! It said there was a detour on 32 and that we had to follow 84 to get to No. 17. It was a total mess. So I decided to try cycling Route 32 anyway, and it worked perfectly—no roadwork or detours! At another spot, the detour was clearly marked, but the GPS didn’t pick it up.

Sunday, June 14, 2026 by C.N.This route isn't exactly scenic; it just goes from one village center to another. Didn't see any castles? Didn't see any valleys either! There were also a lot of detours that were poorly marked. At one point, we just had to re-enter our vacation address and head back that way, so no, this was a real letdown!

Friday, May 8, 2026 by F.G.It was a nice route, but there were several unclear detours. I had to look for the way several times. Worse still was a closed bridge. There was just a fence there with no clear detour. Because of this, I had to take a detour of at least 7 km, only to end up at a railway bridge with stairs that I couldn’t cross on my electric bike.
