Description
A magnificent bike ride through the Voer Valley, from Bertem to Tervuren and Huldenberg. You’ll pass the “Ooghoogte” art installation, which overlooks the vast Duisburg plateau, and the fairytale-like Leefdaal Castle with its round turrets. Stop for a moment at St. Veronika Chapel, whose oldest walls are at least a thousand years old. Stroll along the shores of the ponds in Tervuren’s Warande Park and pay a visit to the renowned AfricaMuseum.

Tuesday, November 12, 2024 by A.M.For me one of the cleanest routes, particularly through the fields between Huldenberg and Leuven. As said in other comments, there are some cobblestones and spicy parts, but in dry conditions not a big problem.

Tuesday, June 1, 2021 by F.C.The first half of the route there is not much nature and you actually cycle almost all the time through villages, which I liked less, although that is personal of course. Another commenter writes that there are enórm many stretches of kasei but that wasn't too bad in my opinion. Also, I did cycle 47km.

Thursday, May 21, 2020 by A.V.Beautiful idyllic landscapes, in some places time had stood still. Beautiful cobblestone lanes cycling not so easy, but certainly preserved. We did not know that enter so beautiful. Small confusion at node 60,

Sunday, April 19, 2020 by K.V.This route, where do I even start? We started from node 10 and fortunately we know our way around downtown Leuven a bit. The signage from junction 10 to 13 is terrible! Towards Heverlee and around the Sportkot there are no signs at all to guide you. We wanted to turn back long before we even started the bike ride because we were so discouraged. Once we left Heverlee, everything went a little better. What you also have to take into account is that this cycling route includes enórmous cobblestone roads (I think our buttocks and wrists were sore for two days afterwards). Also some very steep hills, where I was glad I was riding electric, and I barely even made it up. The route sends you through the Sonian Forest, and there are no signs there either - when you drive up the hill, turn left at the intersection, so - which makes you think you're driving the wrong way for a long time, because the next sign is a short bike ride away. By the way, it's not a 47km but more like a 53km. Too bad about the confusion and cobblestone roads, because the scenery in itself is beautiful!

Wednesday, July 10, 2019 by P.F.Beautiful route. Quite a few unpaved sections and stretches of cobblestone road.
