F741 Hasselt–Sint-Truiden Cycle Route

F741 Bicycle Expressway Hasselt - Sint-Truiden

F741 Hasselt–Sint-Truiden Cycle Route

A collection of 4 cycling routes.

Overview

About this collection

The F741 links Hasselt and Sint-Truiden across Limburg, right through Belgium’s fruit country. It’s a quick, straightforward corridor that’s handy for weekday commutes and chill weekend spins alike.

Expect mostly paved surfaces and quiet stretches, with gentle ups and downs through Haspengouw’s orchards. Spring brings blossom views; later in the season you’ll pass fruit stands and fields. Both endpoints are solid for coffee or a bite—Hasselt is the provincial capital, and Sint-Truiden has a lively market square—and each has a train station, so a one-way ride with rail back is easy.

Navigation is simple: follow the F741 signs. Want more miles? Link into the local knooppunten network to loop through nearby villages and countryside. It can be breezy on open sections, so plan your direction if the wind’s up.

Great for anyone after a smooth, low-stress ride between two charming Limburg towns—whether you’re clocking commute times or chasing pastries.
