You should definitely stop at this place, along a walking and cycling route, near the Demer and the Maiden Tower. There are a number of picnic tables and benches. You have a beautiful view of the surroundings and the beauty of nature.

Hiking

It's worth a visit in any weather and in any season, as the view is always different. After wet weather, the view of the Demerbroeken is worth it, and when the clouds change, it's wonderful to see Averbode Abbey shine, especially when there's a bit of sunshine.

For those less familiar with the region, there are images showing you where to look for the abbey, (the basilica of) Scherpenheuvel, the Demerbroeken (nature reserve), and Zichem itself.
