Saturday, November 1, 2025 by Barbara VanherckA indeed somewhat monotonous walk through the forest, but with the watery autumn sunshine and the beautiful colors of the leaves, still very nice to walk and look around. Barely any benches along the route to rest and have a drink, though. Convenient and safe parking, right at junction 60 (just cross the street).

Saturday, November 9, 2024 by Herman Van den ReeckNice walk, mostly through forest, but the bit outside the forest is also nice because of the views. Did not encounter any difficulties between kn.53 and kn.58, is a narrow (dirt) road though. First thought we were on private property, but road runs next to the Bosranch.

Wednesday, May 1, 2024 by G.W.Beautiful wooded route starting in the fields. Slightly muddy in heavy rain so appropriate footwear recommended.

Thursday, January 28, 2021 by M.V.Beautiful walk in the Buggenhout forest . 90% of the hike in the forest. Well marked; started via the parking lot (61,62,63,etc...).

Wednesday, January 20, 2021 by J.D.If you like a walk in the woods you will be fine , I personally find this one a bit monotonous. At sign nr53 something goes wrong, you should go left according to the sign while the map says right, we went right and followed immediately to the next nr , nr 58 so

Monday, December 7, 2020 by S.C.The Buggenhout forest is beautiful, but unfortunately this walk between points 56 and 59 leads you out of the forest to the other side and you have to walk on macadam between fields. Fortunately, from point 66 we were back in the forest we actually came for.

Wednesday, July 16, 2025 by L.T.You probably went wrong somewhere.... it is indeed paved from 56 to just past 54, but then at the Forest Ranch you turn right onto another unpaved path (which can be very muddy in wetter periods)
