Rich industrialists of the last century built large country houses and castles on the banks of the Scheldt.
The Castles cycle route, in and around Destelbergen, is just a stone's throw away from Ghent and takes you through meadows and past beautiful parks where magnificent houses stand. The star attraction is the Laarne castle, a moated fortress dating back to the Middle Ages.
