Quiet border forests and Burgundian geniality

Along the border between Tilburg and Turnhout you can experience the good things in life in both countries! You will find plenty of natural beauty, beautiful villages, tranquility and the well-known Burgundian geniality.

Gorp & Rovert
The route starts at VVV Tourism Ravels in Ravels. Here you will find all the information to make your stay in this region a wonderful memory. In the countryside, the kilometers seem to pass by themselves, while you drive through a mosaic of stream valleys, fields and grasslands. Further on you drive into the old deciduous and coniferous forests on Landgoed Gorp & Rovert. How wonderfully quiet it is here!

New Church
You pass through the hamlets of Rovert & Gorp, where you can spot some old farms and a hunting lodge from 1870. Nieuwkerk is partly in the Netherlands, partly in Belgium. The hamlet owes its name to the border church that was built here in 1652. Here the Catholics from Tilburg could go to practice their faith. Further along the border you will find a succession of forest, farms and agricultural land. In Ravels you can relax on a terrace.
