Description by the author

Napoleon's army fought a fierce battle here against the Prussians, British, and Russians in 1814. On January 11, 1814, battles took place in Wortel, Loenhout, Meer, Merksplas, Rijkevorsel, Hoostraten, Oostmalle, and Westmalle. In Minderhout, the French retreated. But there was also quite a bit of activity here during WWI. This (two-day) bike ride takes you past all these places with a strong historical background. Learn more about it on this ride.
