Quiet fields, forest roads, even more unpaved trails and, above all, many beautiful vistas come your way during the Ferme Toer Trail.Â
To find it, we head to hilly Binkom, a borough of Flemish Brabant's Lubbeek in the Hageland.
In short, a 'sturdy tour' for which it is best to get out your trail shoes.
The first edition was a huge success and completely sold out, so this year we have added extra distances as well as an extra day! At this second edition of the Ferme Toer Trail, you can choose from the Nine at Night on Saturday or 11 km, 20 km, 32 km and the ultimate 50 km on Sunday.

This part of the Hageland is sometimes called "Little Switzerland. All distances can therefore count on mostly unpaved running paths through wooded areas, fields and along some nice climbs. The 20, 32 and 50K also pass a river crossing.
For the longest distances, trail shoes are a must. You can get through the 11K without mishap with road running shoes.
Start and finish are located at event location Ferme Koer.
