Tuesday, March 30, 2021 by R.V.Unfortunately I do not see why everyone finds this walk so beautiful . Large part is boring paved road . nature is just boring farm country and the here so praised panoramas , being able to see far is one thing, a beautiful panorama is something else ! For me this is one of the most boring hikes I have ever made.

Monday, January 4, 2021 by J.H.Very nice hike. When it has rained there are parts with a lot of mud. Beautiful views of the Pajottenland. And the Kesterheide is definitely worth a visit. Ideal winter hike.

Sunday, May 24, 2020 by W.D.Very nice hiking trail, with lots of quiet roads and beautiful views (especially in nice weather...). Well marked (only junction 237 was difficult to see (is on the left side of the road, just after a meadow (and can have a car parked just in front of it so I had walked past it)...

Sunday, September 2, 2018 by K.I.Most of the hike here is on asphalt, which we found very unfortunate. The bits between 246 - 243 and 253 - 254 are nice, though. The rest is not really worth it.
