During this 44 km long cycling route you will discover 8 hotspots in Lommel, from breathtaking nature to cozy terraces and the most iconic spots in the city. You start your adventure at the spacious parking lot of De Soeverein. The first stop is at the impressive House of Nature (hotspot #1), a monumental steel sculpture that serves as a gateway to the Bosland National Park, with its 7.5 meters high and 50 meters wide. Then you cycle through the Sahara forest towards the Bocholt-Herentals canal, where you pass a cozy café in the middle of nature. Once you have crossed the canal, the route leads you to the elegant Pedestrian Bridge (hotspot #2), which blends in beautifully with the green landscape thanks to its S-shaped design with steel and wood.
