You start at the church of Krokegem for a rural walk with beautiful views over the Pajottenland and the center of Asse. Walk past historical farms such as the Hof ter Lange Bomen and the Verbrand Hof. On your route, walk through 2 forests. The Kartelobos forest charms with its ascending and descending footpath; in spring you will find a purple carpet of flowering hyacinths. The Kravaalbos is more extensive and lies in the municipalities of Aalst, Asse and Opwijk. In spring here, wood anemones and wild hyacinths also color the forest white and purple.

The root nodules of the purple hyacinths are very delicate. If you step on the flowers, they will not grow back next year. So stay on the paths and don't stand among the flowers to take a picture. You risk a fine by the way.
