Monday, June 10, 2024 by Jan VergauwenBeautiful and pleasant bike route, actually it should be called "boerenhoven langs het waasland" because you cycle a lot along green fields and farmyards. You do have to be careful not to miss the small field path at junction 73 because the sign is somewhat hidden! But otherwise you can enjoy lots of greenery and little car traffic.
