Description by the author

Pearls in the Kempen

23.4 km | 21.5 km

This day tour uses the GR 5 and the Regional GR Kempen.

In the footsteps of Pallieter, you will walk along the meanders of the Kleine Nete to the old watermill in Grobbendonk.
The adventure continues between Vorselaar and Zittaart over winding, sandy, sometimes muddy country paths, rewarded with views over the Aa valley. In Poederlee or Poejel, you come to Den Hemel, a café with prices from the good old days. Afterwards, the Kempian ridge is just a small challenge, although the ascent to the tourist tower can still be a climb outside of the category.
Herentals, the gateway to the Kempen with its Beguinage and quiet city paths, ultimately concludes this wonderful discovery tour in style.
