Parike is a village and deelgemeente of the municipality of Brakel. It is located in the Denderstreek in the province of East Flanders in Belgium. It used to be an independent municipality until 1977 when it was merged into Brakel.The village was mentioned in 866 as Elsuth, and could mean area enclosed with spruce trees. In 1453, the village was burnt down by the citizens of Ghent during their war against Philip the Good. At the end of the winter, the Walmkebrand is lit on the Parike Mountain, however that is probably an old heathen tradition. Parike used to be a heerlijkheid, and there is a remnant of a motte-and-bailey castle about 1 kilometre east of Parike.
