Description by the author

With the rich history of the County of Loon and the Prince-Bishopric of Liège, the region around Borgloon is thickly dotted with castles. What’s more, Haspengouw boasts one of the largest concentrations of castles in Western Europe! It’s no surprise that along this 52 km route, you pass no fewer than 13 castles, with even more castles adorning the surrounding hilltops. The fertile soil of the fruit region has amassed and attracted considerable wealth over the past millennium. Many castles are privately owned, but there are also gems along this route that open their gates to visitors. Hop on your steel steed and discover the magnificent landscape around Borgloon.
