Feel the gravel under your wheels as you traverse Haspengouw, a region where fertile clay soils and rolling landscapes surround you. This 103 km long gravel route challenges you with 879 meters of climbing, but rewards you with quiet roads and pristine nature.

You pass the Castle of Rijkel, a 17th-century water castle in Maasland style, where history and architecture come together. Just ahead awaits the Floating Chapel at the highest point of Helshoven, offering a vast view over the region.

The route takes you through both dry and wet Haspengouw, where fruit growing and agriculture play a major role. The challenge lies in the variety: steep climbs, long descents, and unpaved paths that take you deep into the landscape. Along the way, you see how the region struggles with water shortages, putting pressure on agriculture and nature.

The Sint-Servatius Church in Borgloon marks almost the end, where you pause to reflect on the tradition of white chrysanthemums on All Saints' Day. A route that stimulates not only your legs but also your senses.
