Hasselt is the perfect base to explore Limburg by bike, and this tour takes you through De Wijers, the largest contiguous pond area in Belgium. In this impressive landscape of more than a thousand ponds, countless rare animals and plants thrive, shaped by centuries-long fish farming traditions from, among others, the Abbey of Herkenrode and later commercial breeders. The result is a unique patchwork of ponds – historical fish ponds – that today forms a breathtaking natural backdrop.
