Description
A pleasant walk through three forgotten villages: Rossem, Imde and Meusegem. Share the wonder that these villages so close to Brussels have yet remained completely rural. The large open sandy loam couter, known as Imdse Kouter, has been under cultivation for centuries and is among the best agricultural land in the world. At the beginning of World War I, this place was the scene of "The Battle of the Imdse Kouter. As a reminder, a war memorial was placed there that you can see from afar in the landscape.
This walk is offered by Tourism Flemish Brabant.

Sunday, November 22, 2020 by W.V.The route through the field is doable. You have to walk straight ahead until you see a sign again. Too bad those potato and corn farmers want to use every half inch, plowing the paths. Maybe the municipality should make better arrangements to keep them clear? Walking along the street is unpleasant anyway.
