Description
Start at the picturesque St. Stephen’s Church in Oppem for a hike through a rolling farmland landscape. Get a chill from the legend of the Devil’s Barn and listen to the songs of as many as sixty different bird species in the Foeksenbos. On the Heirbaan, the panoramic view stretches all the way to Brussels; you’ll recognize the Atomium and King Baudouin Stadium. And on a clear day, to the north, you can see St. Rumbold’s Tower in Mechelen and even the port of Antwerp.
Before you set out: This walk is presented by Regionaal Landschap Brabantse Kouters.

Saturday, January 16, 2021 by Guido StiensDid a combination of this walk with the Foeksenbos walk and Via Ossel walk, got to 14,5 km Nice walk, mostly unpaved, very quiet also along the paved roads. Beautiful views of Brussels, lots of variety.

Saturday, December 19, 2020 by A.T.Very nice walk, even though it was a dark day today. Ideal distance to get some fresh air. Quiet surroundings. Currently the trails are a bit muddy. Good signage. Definitely to do again on a sunny day with guarantee of beautiful views. Highly recommended !

Monday, November 30, 2020 by Cor van HasseltNice walk with quite a few unpaved paths. At junction 425 you have to be careful but we had no problems.

Saturday, August 15, 2020 by S.D.Fine walk that takes about 1h40 minutes (without a break). At 425 there was a "private" sign at the trailhead on the right, so I walked on and took a detour. Otherwise, the hike might have been 20 minutes shorter. Nature/asphalt surface is about 70/30. Not a flat surface in nature.

Saturday, December 22, 2018 by LIDIA DOMSurprisingly beautiful and varied hike so close to Brussels with regular panoramic views. Do pay attention at junction 425, there you have to follow the narrow footpath, not very clearly indicated.
