  • Cycling route 137864

Your route starts at the Véssumse Hoeve. Vessem is a quiet village with a large rectangular lawn as the central village square and a number of beautiful buildings surrounding it. The oldest of these is the church tower from the 15th century. Many pilgrims come to Vessem on their way to Santiago de Compostella. You can taste the peace and reflection in the air. Then you cycle north via the Landschotse Heide, to ride along the forest edge of the Baest Estate. You will also discover a number of the so-called Eight Beatitudes: Eersel, Duizel, Steensel, Knegsel, Wintelre, Reusel, Hulsel and Netersel. In the past they were called'the selligheden\\\', or'the beatitudes\\\'. Dutch soldiers who were stationed here during the Belgian Revolution scornfully called the villages 'the wretchedness'!

You will find the Vessumse Hoeve in a beautiful building from 1650. Enjoy a cup of coffee in the spacious conservatory before or after your walk or bike ride! Pellet stoves provide a cozy atmosphere when it is a bit chilly outside. On Sundays they open extra early, so you can quickly set off to enjoy a nice long day in the open air. A nice base just outside Vessem, from where you can discover the Acht Zalheden (beautiful Kempen villages) or nature reserves such as the Buikheide.
