The observation point on the Geitenberg is a bird migration counting station. Every autumn, the Natuurpunt bird working group conducts counts at several traditional migration sites in the region. Under normal weather conditions, the posts are occupied every weekend in October. Counts generally begin at sunrise, and in good (bird of prey) migration weather, often continue until sunset. In favorable migration conditions, counts are also conducted outside weekends, from September to November. Source: natuurpunt.be

"Ter Klare" refers to the historic farm (dating from 1779) located on this street, formerly the "Kapittelhof" (Chapter Court) owned by the Bishop of Tournai. From here, you have a panoramic view of the fields.

I'm not sure which bridge this highlight refers to. I walked past this location, and there's no bridge in sight. What's more, there's no waterway over which the supposed bridge is supposed to run. The highlight's original name may have been tampered with here... So, for anyone walking past: don't expect to see a bridge here!

The Garden of Breath and Food describes itself as "an ecological, social, and educational place with picking days, harvest festivals, and workshops. Everyone can participate and contribute! The food forest, full of fruit-bearing trees and edible crops, is a sanctuary for every living creature. Since 2020, several thousand trees and shrubs have been planted here, including in hedgerows and wooded edges as windbreaks. At the rhythm of nature, this spot is developing into an edible forest. The design took into account sunlight, contours, natural drainage, soil type, and the needs of local fauna. We work partly through natural succession, which means we won't eliminate all the natural pioneer plants we normally label as weeds. We allow nature to develop spontaneously and intervene as little as possible." I took my lunch break there on the filo-sofa. I was there alone, with no one to talk to about the suggestion questions (see photos). A shame... but not really. It was incredibly quiet.

The bridge itself isn't much. There are actually two of the same type just a few hundred meters apart. Both cross the Gaverbeek stream, which runs parallel to the Trimaarzate, the green walking and cycling route on the old Ronse-Kortrijk railway line. The bridges allow you to walk through the grass on the other side of the Gaverbeek (although not yet designated as a walking path on Komoot, it is certainly easily walkable) instead of on the paved Trimaarzate.

At the corner of Maagdestraat and Kooigembosweg, on the border between Kooigem and Espierre-Helchin/Spiere-Helkijn (also the language border), stands this simple roadside chapel, popularly known as "Onze-Lieve-Vrouw ter Ruste" (Our Lady of Rest) or "Peter's Chapel." A statue of the Virgin Mary sits in the niche. Pieces of cloth are tied to the bars of the niche, left in gratitude for healing (from fever), an old tradition that may refer to a Germanic custom.

As is the case with many chapels, pieces of cloth are tied to the bars of the door (see, for example, the Passjekapel on the Catsberg in Godewaerdsvelde in French Flanders). This refers to a devotion that is actually based on a Germanic tradition: believers come to the chapel hoping for (or in gratitude for) protection and healing from illnesses that cause fever. They leave behind a piece of cloth (bandage, sock, handkerchief, etc.), worn by the sick person.

The Tonte Chapel is a magnificent chapel, largely due to its location: at the highest point in Kooigem, with a number of nearly upright poplars as neighbors. It can therefore be seen from afar. The combination of white paint on the walls and blue woodwork gives the chapel an extra special character. The history of the chapel, which has been a protected monument since 2004, dates back to the first half of the 18th century. The first, smaller chapel was probably built in 1729 but destroyed in 1914, not by war, but by fire following a lightning strike. The current chapel dates from after the First World War. The small chapel was enlarged in 1929 by the residents of the nearby farm. The Tonte Chapel is a popular place of worship, especially in May. Source: Heritage Inventory
