Cycling route: Bels Lijntje

The so called ‘Bels Lijntje’ is originally a train track, opened in 1867. Partially because of World War One, the track was removed years later and replace by a cycling lane. Now it is a well-known cycling route of 31 km, which brings you all the way from Turnhout (BE) to Tilburg (NL). The route is perfect for a long tour through several villages nearby, in which you can take a break for a snack or a drink. As from Turnhout, you pass through Weelde, Baarle-Hertog, Baarle-Nassau, Alphen, Riel, Goirle and end in the city of Tilburg (NL).
