Icon description route Description

Departure: Heirbaan 137 - Galmaarden

A varied walk across the fields and in the Raspaillebos. The Raspaillebos forms a whole with the Moerbekebos, the Karkoolbos, and the Kluisbos.

In the Raspaillebos, we walk past the Juffrouw Chapel, known locally as 't Iffraken. The chapel was erected around 1860 in honor of Saint Apollonia. After it collapsed in 2012, it was completely rebuilt by Natuurpunt volunteers with authentic materials and according to 19th-century construction techniques.

There are several elevation differences as we are in the Geraardsbergen region (known for cycling races). There are also some low-lying areas where a lot of mud can occur during rainy periods.
