Moorsel - Affligem

Description

Departure: sports grounds Exterkenstraat - Aalst

A peaceful walk through a beautiful piece of nature, although the paths can be quite muddy during rainy periods.

We leave the village and head towards the Biezebroek, a particularly old source forest where the springs of the Monnikhofbosbeek rise. Here we discover the surprising Trollenweg: an atmospheric walking path where wooden trolls take us into the hidden magic and mysterious atmosphere of this ancient forest.

Afterwards, via the water castle of Moorsel - private property and only the gates leading to the magnificent lanes are visible - further to the Abbey of Affligem. The associated brewery inn offers the opportunity for refreshments and a toilet stop. Then back through the fields and small wooded areas to the starting point.
