Temse Tease

description
A flat-to-gently-rolling loop north out of Brussels, following the Zenne and Scheldt valleys toward Temse before looping back through the Flemish Brabant countryside. The outbound leg is largely flat, tracing quiet lanes and towpaths through Vilvoorde, Willebroek, and the polder villages along the Scheldt, with Temse's riverside setting as the natural turning point roughly halfway round. The return leg picks up gentle climbs through the hillier terrain just before Meise, adding some welcome texture before dropping back into Brussels. At 103 km with just under 200m of total climbing, it's an accessible ride to all.
