Icon description route Description

We did this walk on 26-01-2025.

For navigation, it is best to take a map or GPS. Quite a few junctions are missing. The route itself is not very spectacular; it runs mostly through shady forests. An ideal summer walk, therefore.

Nature itself had provided quite a spectacle. It had been raining for a while, and at night there was some more rain. The paths were quite wet. Call it waterlogging. It was a matter of stepping-jumping from one dry patch, over and alongside deep puddles, to another dry patch. Here and there, we also encountered some hard surface underfoot.

In the distance, we also heard the bangs from the shooting range at Hechtel-Eksel. We did not find it disturbing.

For us, it was thoroughly enjoying nature in all its aspects.

Happy walking,
