Icon description route Description

Departure: parking rue d'Ath 32 - Beloeil (not on Wednesday morning, as there is a market)

The castle and park, still owned by the noble de Ligne family, are accessible to visitors for a fee.

The impressive French garden, laid out in 1664 and surrounded by a square moat, is no less than 25 hectares and forms a splendid example of both classical French garden architecture and later English landscape architecture.

The formal French garden is open to the public, while the English section remains private.

We walk around the castle and through the stately, soothing woods of Dambruges, where nature and heritage harmoniously come together. Via the RAVeL, the cycle path along the canal, we return along the water.
