Icon description route Description

With the Velpe as your guide, you’re in for a lovely walk through sunken roads and vast fields in and around the village of Opvelp. The landscape has been shaped by agriculture for centuries, as beautifully illustrated by the Berkenhof, a stunning square farmhouse. Enjoy the tranquility and stunning scenery in the Hazeberg Nature Reserve.

Before you set out: This is a walk on a virtual hiking network. The junctions are not marked on the ground. Follow the hexagonal red-and-white signs bearing the name of the walk.
IMPORTANT: The route between junctions 747 and 748 has been changed. Please follow the signage.

Sunday, January 15, 2023 by E.Q.This hike has been changed since September 2022, so previous comments are no longer correct. Beautiful hike through the valley of the Velpe and over the Haspengouw slate plateau. Along the way wide views, 2 square farms and the beautiful nature reserve Hazeberg.
