A cycle route has also been mapped out between the Big Bench in Torhout and it in Hooglede. The bank in Hooglede was installed three years ago. A lot of people come to that, also from abroad. You can buy a ‘big bench passport’ and collect stamps from all the banks you have already been to. There are Big Benches in the Netherlands, Japan, United Kingdom, Poland, Romania, Sweden and Spain.
