Heistse Berg

You can climb the water tower on Sunday afternoon for a view that takes you as far as Brussels and Antwerp on a clear day.
Herenboss
In the countryside you cycle through a series of agricultural lands and forests. It is wonderfully peaceful to travel for miles here. You regularly see old chapels and Kempen farms. Between junctions 67 and 94 you ride a short distance on the Kempen-Hageland route, a cycle path that was built over a former railway line. Then you drive into the Herenbossen, a beautiful nature reserve located in the Nete Valley. You can contact Tourism Heist-op-den-Berg for more information about this region.
