Achel, Bocholt and Dielishoek.

It is the only place in Limburg in Belgium where you can see the shore thistle growing. There is a pond in the area, which was used to breed fish. When this was stopped, nature took its course and many water birds can be found on the water and around the banks. Not only beautiful nature, but also a beautiful monastery is on the program when you explore this cycling tour. The Klaarland Priory (Priory Klaarland), which is located in Lozen, belonged to the order of the Trappists and was founded in 1970 by six sisters. The abbey is subordinate to the Nazareth abbey from Brecht, because the sisters were actually connected to it. In the monastic community, the days are filled with prayer, readings and manual labor, as is customary in Trappist life. When you come to a time of prayer, you can attend these prayers. To earn their daily bread, the sisters work and have built up small businesses. They manufacture brewer's yeast tablets, liturgical vestments, candles, ointments, oils and greeting cards.
