Description by the author

The Landscape Cubes Route Herne:

This route takes you along the landscape cubes in the Green Quadrant of Herne. Pieter (Herne), Icarus (Kokejane), Mayken (Herfelingen), (D)ulle Griet (Sint-Pieters-Kapelle), and K5 (artwork no. 5) in the Dominican Convent of Herne are worth stopping at to take a break.

Above all, the route guides you through the beautifully hilly green Pajottenland Bruegel landscape with its delightful views, its tranquil valleys with idyllic streams, its typical square farms, church buildings, watermills, and cultural historical heritage such as the Charterhouse and the Dominican convent.

 

There are three cycling loops that traverse the beautiful, green Herne for no less than 70 km of cycling pleasure.

 

The red loop has a distance of 30 km and starts at the sports hall in Herne. Through the magnificent hilly Pajottenland landscape, you will find 2 landscape cubes, the convent, and the castle domain of Ter Rijst along the route.

At the castle domain of Ter Rijst, you can connect to the green loop.

Upon re-entering Herne, you can enjoy a well-deserved stop at the Herne station.

 

The blue loop has a distance of 26 km and can start in Herne or at the starting point in Sint-Pieters-Kapelle at the playground De Wippewei. In Sint-Pieters-Kapelle, you will find the landscape cube De Dulle Griet.

The route goes via panoramic beautiful views, field paths, and includes the necessary elevation meters.

 

The green loop has a distance of 18 km and goes through Herfelingen, with Mayken as the landscape cube over Heikruis back towards the start.
