Description by the author

Start an arrival at the rear of the station Gent-Sint-Pieters.
Twelve possible shortcuts (bridges over the Leie) along the route, allowing for the cycling distance to be nearly self-determined.

At the first shortcut at Sint-Matens-Leerne, it's only 32 km of completely flat cycling and on the way back, one can visit the picturesque Sint-Martens-Latem.
The entire cycling route to the center of Kortrijk at the Broeltorens is 112 km long and also completely flat.

On the way back, a detour is planned along the natural domain of the Gavers.

Those who prefer not to come to Gent by train can take the exit 13 on the E40 by car and then follow the N466 in the direction of Deinze until the church of Baarle, where there are a few parking spaces close to the route.
