Quick ride by bicycle from Mont-Saint-Guibert to Rixensart

Set off from the charming village of Mont-Saint-Guibert, famous for its lovely square and historic church, and wind your way north towards Rixensart on a varied 17 km ride. This route is perfect if you enjoy quiet, backroad cycling—about two-thirds of your journey is on peaceful roads and country tracks, so you’ll get to soak up plenty of Belgian countryside with minimal traffic.

You'll tackle some gentle climbs (just over 200 meters of ascent), but nothing too daunting, and along the way you’ll get a real mix of surfaces: mostly paved (with a few stretches of concrete and even some gravel for extra fun!). The route has a little bit of everything—smooth stretches, rustic tracks, and leafy lanes—ideal for a relaxed adventure.

Finishing up in Rixensart, take time to check out the beautiful lakes and maybe even the fairytale Château de Rixensart, a stunning 17th-century castle surrounded by lovely grounds. It’s a picturesque way to end your ride!
