Friday, May 10, 2024 by Marleen RoelsThis route was in 1 word TOP! The bike paths were in super good condition, as far as nature is concerned, beautiful views. For the thirsty there are enough cafes with cozy terraces, especially along the Binneneschelde. As for the route: very good, just after route number 36 it says TP but that is number 38 and then just 22 then 25,52 and further the route is correct.
