Due to a fire, the starting area is not reachable: dressing rooms and showers are also inaccessible. It is better to park your car at the carpool parking area at the E 40 exit Hoegaarden ( https://maps.app.goo.gl/TqdfxAwctxv2vvp3A ), where you can join the red loop of the route.

WARNING: Work on the route. There is still work on the route: a detour is provided!

The mountain bike route Hoegaarden consists of two loops:

• a short red loop of 21.5 km
• a long blue loop of just under 40 km

You start at sports hall De Struysvogel. First, you follow the blue loop, then you leisurely ride via the water mill and the (play) forest of Rommershoven towards Outgaarden. You cross the language border for the first time and can enjoy the beautiful Walloon views. You wind back through the beautiful park of Hoegaarden. There you have the opportunity to make a pit stop in the center of Hoegaarden. After your break, a steep ascent awaits you, and you will arrive at the junction of the red and blue loop. Follow the red arrows here and climb further to Hauthem, descend to Hoksem, and climb back to Kauterhof. Via a fun descent and gentle climb, you return to the center of Hoegaarden.
