Description
Follow the meandering course of the Dijle River through Piervenshoek, a remote corner of Keerbergen with a very rural feel. Take a walk through the Piervensbos, where children can have a blast in the play area, and pass by a bunker with a three-kilometer-long anti-tank trench. Cross the Oude Hansbrug, a cast-iron bridge from the nineteenth century. Well, not quite—since the original bridge had completely rusted away, this exact replica, made from the same materials, was unveiled in 2005.

Sunday, September 19, 2021 by M.M.Nice walk. First part next to the water, then nice looking at houses. Too bad there is no parking at the starting point. You have to park a bit further on the street. Also no opportunity for drinks/snacks afterwards.
