Sunday, January 14, 2024 by Benjamin KeppensThis is a very nice walk that shows you -starting from the church- the beautiful nature that Gooik has to offer; beautiful open landscapes. A bonus during the end-of-year period: you pick up parts of their famous Christmas crib tour ... very charming at times!
