Haspengouw, Belgium's fruit region, is an ideal area for hiking and cycling. The landscape of orchards, fields, forests and stream valleys offers endless opportunities for relaxation and adventure. In spring, the region is extra special, when the orchards are in full bloom and the scent of blossoms fills the air.
Along theway, you will also pass some special sights:
‘Reading Between the Lines’ see-through church.
This special little church is located near Borgloon, near the Holsteenweg. It offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape and is a work of art that brings the landscape to life in a unique way.
Helsheaven' floating chapel
This unusual little chapel is located in Helshoven, near Borgloon. It seems to float above the landscape and offers breathtaking views over the fruit orchards of Haspengouw.
Haspengouw is also rich in charming church villages, castles and square farms. Whether walking or cycling, there is always something beautiful to discover.
