The first stage starts at the St. Michael's Church in Beek, goes along the Goorloop, through the Laar, the Hooge Akkers, Hoog Strijp, along the Wilhelmina Canal and through De Beemd to the center of Aarle-Rixtel and ends at the church.
The second stage from Aarle-Rixtel to Lieshout passes through the Groot Overbrugge estate, the Croy estate and the Molenheide.
Lieshout, the starting point of the third stage, is best known for the Bavaria beer brewery, the brewery buildings of which you could already see during the previous stage. The village also has two mills, De Leest mill with the De Mulder monument in front of the mill and the Vogelenzang mill. The stage goes through the hamlet of Deense Hoek and the Ruweeuwsels nature reserve back to the edge of Lieshout for a visit to the Vogelenzang mill. After a visit to the mill, the stage goes past the small nature reserve the Moorselen, the Keelgras and the Lieshoutse Heide, also called Lieshoutse Bossen, after Mariahout, the end point of this stage.
Mariahout, the starting point of the fourth stage, is a reclamation village. Since 1920, the wastelands in the northwest of Lieshout have been massively reclaimed. The many new farms, together with existing hamlets, formed the basis for a new village community.
Stage 5, also the last stage, starts at the Piet van Thielplein on the Donk in Beek en Donk. The stage goes through the Eyckenlust estate with Eyckenlust Castle, past the Holy Blood Mission Monastery, also known as Broek's Monastery. The stage then goes through De Biezen and Milschot nature reserve, through Het Broek and along the river Aa to the end point, the church in Beek in the town of Beek en Donk.
