Icon description route Description

This route is ideal for those who love adventurous hikes in an authentic, green environment.

122 meters of elevation - 8.2 km - more than 5 km off-road.

The Douve is a stream that originates in this valley, and centuries ago, this stream was even navigable!

The stream flows into the Leie in Warneton and is still a few meters wide there.

You walk in a stream valley, so after rain, it can remain muddy longer than a walk on flatter paths.

But... it is very beautiful there!

Sunday, May 24, 2026 by OLIVIER DUPONTA wonderful hike that I did again this morning under beautiful sunshine, without the mud from February. Stunning views. A very hilly route. Such a change of scenery—it feels like a whole other world right near home. I absolutely loved it. Definitely worth doing again.
