A BEAUTIFUL ESCAPE! Through the Flemish and Walloon Brabant provinces, an enchanting bicycle route joins Felix and Folon. “Free spirits” offers a unique route between two monographic museums, located a dozen kilometers from each other, on the outskirts of Brussels, one in Drogenbos dedicated to the painter-farmer Felix De Boeck and the other in La Hulpe designed by Jean-Michel Folon.
