Description
The municipality of Asse is located on the outskirts of the Pajottenland, still just adjacent to the Faluintjes region and edging out toward Brussels. Asse is really neither rural anymore nor really urbanized. Perhaps the charm of what Asse has to offer lies precisely in this great diversity.
A varied bike route through Asse, Brussegem, Kobbegem, Asbeek, Essene. You ride through Asbeek zigzagging into Essene. Along the Hogeweg and Assestraat (Essene) you arrive at the O.LV.-church, along the Ankerhof you continue on the Eksterenberg.
This cycle route is offered by Tourism Flemish Brabant.

Friday, August 21, 2020 by Johan FrancoisAt 28° this route was a challenge. 0I didn't know there were still so many cobblestone lanes around Asse. And if you go to 10 % incline on some of the cobblestones then you know enough. It doesn't seem possible to me to do this route without an electric drive. The landscapes and the tranquility, so close to Brussels, make up for a lot.

Sunday, May 10, 2020 by Peter Vanden DriesscheIn full coronacrisy time a nice family cycling trip. Good weather and stopping in Brussegem for a local ice cream shop. What more could a man need!
Beautiful trail, really.

Wednesday, April 15, 2020 by L.S.April 2020. Beautiful route. Nicely marked but some signs were hidden behind a pole or branch. So looking out. Be careful on unpaved roads with racing bikes, but there are really not that many. A few cobblestones that hurt the hole et some nice hills, short and powerful.
Calm roads, often in agricultural areas.

Wednesday, April 1, 2020 by N.V.My regular training route with MTB. Watch out for the unpaved parts. With some nice climbs.

Sunday, July 15, 2018 by Willems LukThis loop is NOT a bike button route. The directions are correct and the gpx-gdb track (at least mine) is correct to within 2 meters.
Don't underestimate the inclines, short but severe.
And some cobbled sections à la Paris-Roubaix.
Scenery very varied and often beautiful: the fewer houses, the more beautiful.
Good lap times with touring bike between 1h30 and 2 hours. What about the road bike? In any case: a good practice ride.

Monday, July 24, 2017 by R.M.We really enjoyed the bike route. And all the signs were there. Ridden this route on Wednesday evening July 19 and left here at home at 8pm.

Saturday, July 22, 2017 by E.C.At the starting point you see plenty of signs but once you have to find the next one there is nothing hanging around, the same along the way, each time in the center of a town/village.
The GPS file is also not to follow, sends you on wrong paths. No, this ride is better to follow with nodes.

Tuesday, May 30, 2017 by K.D.Nice route. Lots of green but still some mountains to climb.
For people who want to make an intensive bike ride as well as for a pleasure trip on a Sunday afternoon.
Do not forget to recharge your batteries at the market of Asse. :-)

Wednesday, August 3, 2016 by P.G.Very beautiful and varied route along rural roads. Along the way there are some (tough) hills. Definitely worthwhile.
