Icon description route Description

Walked on 1/26/2026

Parking: Patersplein Rooierheide.

Distance walked according to GPS: 7.51 km.

Signage: Walking junctions/GPS/Walking App.

First, you have to face 3.1 km of paved roads, including a section along the N702 and the Diepenbeek Campus. But then you step into a beautiful bit of nature: "De Dijken Nature Reserve", very nice to walk.

After 5.8 km, there is a very muddy section (in wet weather), which luckily is not too long. Then a short stretch through the Patersbos and you are back at your starting point.

Bench(s): among others at 4, 5.7, and 7 km.
