Bertem (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈbɛrtɛm] ) is a municipality located in the Belgian province of Flemish Brabant. The municipality comprises the towns of Bertem proper, Korbeek-Dijle and Leefdaal. On January 1, 2006, Bertem had a total population of 9,215. The total area is 29.75 km2 which gives a population density of 310 inhabitants per km2.

The area is noted for its rural landscape, in particular the "Koeheide"[2] and "Bertembos" ("Bertem Forest"). On the open plains of Leefdaal, it is possible to see the endangered European Hamster (Cricetus cricetus)).[3] The village of Bertem itself is home to the Sint-Pieters-Bandenkerk [nl], a romanesque church built between 950 and 1050.


Known cyclist Vlad van Mechelen is from there.
