Universiteitsbibliotheek en bibliotheektoren
University library
👍👍 Today, I took my 3-year-old child to visit the Universiteitsarchief KU Leuven . The most interesting thing was that we climbed the tower together. The process of climbing the tower was very meaningful. It took 40 minutes in the library and the ticket was 7 euros. The conductor is very patient.

Meerdaalwoud
National forest
🫤 Huge natural forests near Heverlee. If you're in the area, Good for a visit or cycling. But wouldn't recommend for walking as the landscapes remain the same throughout the forest. And there isn't much variety to explore.

Wijngaardberg
Nature preserve
👍 Wijgaardbergwandeling route gevolgd. Mooi natuur met mooie fruitbomen. Paar keer wat stijler omhoog moeten gaan, maar zeker goed te doen. Misschien niet voor kinderwagens of personen slecht bij voet. Het kan wat modderig zijn na regenvallen, maar leuk om het gedaan te hebben. Zeker doen
