Cycling through the hop cathedrals 🍺🌿
The Sint-Sixtusstraat near Westvleteren is a delightfully quiet cycle path that takes you right through the typical landscape of the Poperinge hop region. On either side, meter-high wooden poles and wires rise up, making you feel like you are in an open-air cathedral of hops.
During the growing season, the hop bines twist ever higher, forming an impressive green backdrop. Even after the harvest, the tall poles and wires remain a special and photogenic landscape.
