Description
This hike through Westmal woods and meadows will take you to an oasis of tranquility. You will stay in an anchorage of heritage landscape Flanders, with the Westmal Trappist Abbey at its center. For those who want to take a look behind the scenes, you can attend the nones at 2 p.m. The peace and quiet ensured that various religious orders found a residence here, including the monastery of the Contemplative Annunciates and the rest house of the Sisters of Our Lady of Namur.

Sunday, October 25, 2026 by A.D.A really nice walk. The trail markers are very easy to spot. The abbey was huge and beautiful. It was just a shame that it was raining and there were lots of puddles and mud—if it rains, definitely don’t wear your good shoes; wear rain boots instead.

Tuesday, July 8, 2025 by Filip Janssenswhat a farce this walk ... nowhere to find nodes and after almost an hour of searching finally found a very unclear arrow No. 89. followed it and again nothing. after an hour of searching back in the car and went somewhere else to walk. Meanwhile 2 other people told me they also had this problem.
