Description
The Fat Man of Pamel? That’s a cheerful statue on the banks of the Dender River in the village of Pamel. The “Fat Man” really existed—he was a man named Victor De Klerck who lived in the 19th century and reportedly weighed as much as 300 kilos. This lovely walk also takes you past a few wartime bunkers, St. Gaucerius Church, the De Turfput nature reserve, and the farmstead and former brewery Hof de Kam.
