Cycling along the Weertse Dreef is a wonderful way to discover the natural beauty of this unique area.
The Weertse Dreef is a long, tree-lined avenue known for its characteristic appearance. The avenue is lined with tall trees, so you can find pleasant shade, even on hot summer days. The quiet, paved paths make it an ideal route for a relaxing bike ride

Meerdaal Forest and Heverlee Forest

Highlight • Forest

Together with the Egenhoven Forest, the Meerdaal Forest and the Heverlee Forest cover an area of 2050 hectares and form the largest mixed deciduous forest in Flanders. In contrast to the otherwise fertile soils of the surrounding lands, this soil is sandy to loamy. Therefore, you will find a large variety of plants such as coltsfoot, common sage bush, moorberry, wild strawberry, chickweed, marsh fern and false sage, which are satisfied with nutrient-poor soils.

Be very quiet and you might see deer - in these forests you will find the oldest deer population in Flanders. Bird lovers will also get their money's worth here and can watch songbirds and birds of prey.

Don't be surprised if you suddenly see dwarves, monsters, trolls or goblins - the oxygen hasn't gone to your head. On the "Path of Ad" you can discover mysterious and fairytale tree sculptures.
