Do you like wide views? Then this walk is for you! You will be treated to magnificent panoramas, with the Brakel watchtower as the literal highlight. You'll have to climb some altimeters to get there.

Monday, October 7, 2024 by C.V.Very nice route, but I strongly recommend avoiding the unpaved section from node 41 to node 30. I'm an experienced hiker with a lot of balance, but that trail is in terrible shape. Good for breaking feet!

Sunday, July 21, 2024 by P.V.In terms of scenery, a beautiful hiking trail, but.... unfortunately, most of the paths on this trail are very bad and overgrown with nettles, thistles, hogweed and thorny blackberry bushes. Apparently in Brakel it's "mow-me-not-month-May-July"! In rainy weather, this trail is an absolute no-go!!!

Thursday, November 4, 2021 by F.L.What is so dangerous about junction 30? I ask this question because I am considering doing this route sometime soon ...

Monday, October 11, 2021 by Luc VanderkelenStart place is not on the Market Square but in the Kouterstraat. From the market square, node 83 cannot be found. We followed the road to node 24 from the market square and found starting point 83. Otherwise a nice but tough hike. Between nodes 41 and 30 a part of the meigelweg is difficult.

Friday, September 3, 2021 by Patrick BatselierJunction 30 is not doable life-threatening ! I wonder why you give as starting point market in Brakel? When there is a big parking lot at Dam 5 and closer to start node 83 ! ! !

Saturday, December 26, 2020 by Caroline De CockBeautiful walk with vistas. Better park on Meerbeek Street and start there.

Thursday, November 19, 2020 by J.V.A walk with a lot of concrete, though some nice views, the dirt path at node 30 I find very dangerous. We did miss nodes 12 and 73 !!!
