Icon description route Description

Let yourself be swept away by the most beautiful spots around Zichem, the birthplace of the writer Ernest Claes. Climb the imposing medieval Maagdentoren and enjoy an enchanting view of the region from the top. Then take a stroll along the winding Demer River, where a converted flatboat invites you to take a moment to catch your breath.

Before you set out: Follow the junction markers of the De Merode Hiking Network or the signs with the orange circle.

Saturday, April 12, 2025 by E.G.Fine,beautiful and quiet walk! But there are works on the towpath along the Demer so you can't walk from node 141 to node 341. After node 375 follow the detour to 341.

Saturday, December 24, 2022 by Karin van de VenAfter so many days of rain, this hike is just fine. Alternately you walk through the meadows and through the village. Personally, I do not like a long stretch of road and those are several present but the environment does not bore.

Thursday, March 10, 2022 by Peter VerbeekVery nice walk, views of Averbode Abbey, Scherpenheuvel Basilica and army zeppelin in Schaffen. Paved roads are very quiet.
