Icon description route Description

This walk in memory of Femke runs through the beautiful Haacht nature reserve of the Antitankgracht and the green banks of the Dijle. Yellow flower signage.

With this walk the non-profit organization Femke for Life wants to draw attention to the often underestimated problems of eating disorders. The organization wants not only to raise awareness, but also to give a clear sign of solidarity to all those who fight against this complex problem.

We would like to keep Femke alive, forever close by.

Hope is being able to see that there is light
despite all of the darkness

Tuesday, October 27, 2026 by D.V.What a wonderful, heartwarming themed walk. Planned with such love, endlessly refined, and reworked into this beautiful whole. The rest stops are particularly moving, where poems by Femke herself are read aloud by her niece Karen, accompanied by background music provided by Joeri. A walk that will prove to be well worth the effort.

Thursday, October 22, 2026 by Frieda VerbinnenWhat a warm and wonderful initiative! Hopefully, many active hikers will come to admire the beautiful route through the green forests and fields of Haacht and discover Femke’s lovely texts along the way via QR codes that can be scanned. It’s definitely a great added value. I’ll never forget them… Congratulations to the organizers!
