Icon description route Description

One is none, might sound an unwritten rule of the Premonstratensians. After all, in the mists of time, the monastics in Landscape Park de Merode built not one but two abbeys. The fact that fathers always founded their monasteries in a place where God's Creation showed itself at its most beautiful is surely no stranger to that. This bicycle route takes you from the abbey of Averbode to the abbey of Tongerlo and back. Straight through a Kempen piece of earthly paradise.
