Abbey of Tongerlo by bike

by filipdebont - last update: Mar 29, 2004

visiting the abbey by bike
In July I went to Heppen, a small village near Leopoldsburg (Limburg). The Local cycling Club, V.W. Heppen organised their annual Abbey trip.

I had heard from friends that this was a very beautiful trip.

The distance from Roeselare to Heppen was about 180 km; of course I did that by car.

In Heppen there were several cycling distances from 35 till 160 km.

The 90 km trip: abbey of Postel
The 110 km trip: abbeys of Tongerlo and Averbode
The 160 km trip: abbeys of Postel - Tongerlo and Averbode.

As the weather was not so good, it was raining, I decided to go for the 110 km trip.

It was a nice trip along quiet roads, but it was not so easy (read flat) as I thought.

And later on (after 52 km) we passed the Abbey of Averbode (See my Averbode page).
