INFO: De Beck mare-milk dairy has stopped producing mare’s milk. You can no longer purchase this product or obtain further information about it. However, you can still visit the horses in the pastures.
This route takes you to the west of Mechelen, where the River Zenne meanders through the rich green countryside. However, you will be led away from the water to explore Hombeek’s many agrarian areas and the border with Leest. Apart from the occasional glimpse of St Rumbold’s Tower, it is not hard to imagine you have left the inhabited world behind! Prepare for a zen moment on the Hombeeks Plateau!
