The Kravaalbos is an ecologically valuable old-growth forest, characterized by a colorful spring flora. It is centrally located in the beautiful, gently rolling landscape between Aalst, Asse, and Opwijk. Here originate the streams that meander so charmingly through the landscape.
The forest is accessible year-round on the paths. Sturdy shoes are recommended. In rainy weather, the paths become muddy and difficult to navigate. Not accessible for wheelchairs and strollers.

St. Peter's Church - Mazenzele

Highlight • Religious Site

The church, dating from the 13th century, perhaps earlier, is partly the oldest existing building in the municipality of Opwijk. A large part was made with sandstone from the nearby Kravaalbos. It was definitively protected as a monument by the ministerial decision of 16 November 1997. During the First World War, part of the church (including the tower) was blown up by the Germans. The so-called Thiende bell 'Maria' has been hanging in the tower since 1639. It was cast by J. Brouchart. The picturesque church was restored on the outside. During the restoration work, an archaeological investigation was also carried out and the 19th-century Anneessensorgel from the church in Nijverseel was returned to the parish church of Mazenzele. In 1967, the walled cemetery was removed and a new cemetery was constructed along the Kouterbaan.

pleasant walk in the region of Asse, even in bad weather :-) Alternating passages in the woods, roads with little traffic and country paths. Little difference in height and practicable paths in rainy weather. Parking available at the start, at the Onbevlekt Hart van Mariakerk church. Possibility of picnic at km 7.20.

Pleasant walk in the surroundings of Asse. The majority of the circuit takes place on paths, trails or roads with little traffic. Note the pleasant passage in the Kravaalbos and, for those who are interested, a picnic table at kms 1.5 and 7.5. Easy route to do and within everyone's reach. Departure from the parking lot next to the church …
