Icon description route Description

You’ll pass by the churches and chapels of Vertrijk, Roosbeek, Butsel, and Boutersem in a valley landscape dotted with pockets of precious nature. These include the Butselbos forest with the Sterreborne Chapel and the former Butsel castle site. The Velpe River is never far away. In Vertrijk, you’ll come to the Kwabeek estate, once a fief of the Duchy of Brabant and one of the region’s most important castles. The park is open to the public, and the castle serves as a beautiful town hall.

Before you set out: This is a walk on a virtual walking network. The junctions are not marked on the ground. Follow the hexagonal red-and-white signs bearing the name of the walk.

Sunday, March 12, 2023 by P.P.Done on a sunny Saturday afternoon. After several days of rain/snow, only the forest was soggy. The route is perfectly lined, park and castle are worthwhile and it is a nice walk but I would definitely not do it on a Sunday morning: there are many tracks of MTB on narrow roads.

Wednesday, July 29, 2020 by H.T.Too much through built-up areas, not enough real hiking trails. Roads are passable .
Route description: after /- 8 km you come through a forest with at some point a "crossroads" with 4 directions. The pole with the signpost has fallen over, so here you have to guess which direction to take.

Saturday, June 27, 2020 by Paul Van HoovelsA very nice varied walk. Forest, fields, small villages, churches everything is in this walk. Only our distance measurement differed from the given distance of 10.9 we had almost 14km at the end. (measured with strava)
