Last week we had already taken a walk in Bosland, namely around the Peinvennen. Today we explored another part around Hobos and the Grote Hof. The old farmhouse Hobos is under scaffolding and is not accessible, but an information board tells you the history of the estate and its farmhouse. Stories about

In May, every bird lays an egg...
That's what the Cuckoo I heard in the Rosdel nature reserve thought too. Rosdel is located in the valley of the Schoorbroekbeek between Hoegaarden and L'Écluse. It mainly consists of wet meadows with beautiful flora and fauna. The walking paths are semi-paved to unpaved

Today I took advantage of the only dry day this week.
A walk in Westerlo along the Grote Nete appealed to me.
Kasteel de Merode, the Varenbroek, the Hertberg are a few highlights on my way. History, fauna and flora and nature in 50 shades of green,... a pity that in the last km a path was closed by a local

While everyone was heading towards the coast or the Ardennes this morning, we went to Bosland.
A sunny, quiet, leafy forest walk was on the program. A walk to completely de-stress from the hustle and bustle of the past week.
The more I retreat into nature, the more I long for it...

Much too sultry afternoon... judging by the threatening clouds, a thunderstorm was coming again...
But I still wanted to visit the Abbaye de Chéhéry and the river L'Aire, both located in the valley, to stretch my legs and take inspiration photos.
It was worth it...

Thick fog made Bertembos a mysterious place this morning. Climbing and descending in a rolling landscape... remnants of the original Kolenwoud. Beautiful hiking trails, busy with groups of young mountain bikers with guidance, provided a nice change. The Eikenbos is located near the Bertembos and is much

What a blissful, sunny afternoon for a walk, and the Dunbergbroek in Holsbeek is the ideal place for it. The otherwise almost inaccessible Hageland valley is a popular spot for many hikers on weekends in dry weather. Today the walking paths were deserted... lucky me! This route has everything for a lover

Bloesemwandeling Meensel-Kiezegem
2 fruitbeeldige kunstwerken tussen de laatste bloesems...het Hageland heeft in totaal 11 kunstwerken, die de relatie mens en fruitteelt, binnen de fruitstreek, uitbeelden.
De kunstroute doe je best al fietsend...maar lukt ook in verschillende etappes, te voet.

Just in time to enjoy some fruit blossoms in the region. This blossom walk had been on the plan for a while. The route is certainly not unknown to me, but it had been a while since I walked that way, so...
Thanks also to @Stef, who with one of his recent walks reminded me of all the beauty, nearby!

This hike, chosen by my hiking buddy, I recently walked in February.
Another season, so a different experience... experiencing spring in all its scents and colors is something else than a winter walk.
It was also a "catch-up walk"... after not hiking together for 2 weeks. And was more important this time...

After the heavy rain last night, the Maasduinen are easily passable. The Niers is a tributary of the Maas, which winds its way right through the dune belt near Gennep. The dune tops here are also quite "high", so there is quite a bit of climbing and descending in the last few kilometers. The view over

Sometimes the days, the landscapes you walk through, the kilometers... start to resemble each other. But the people you meet are always different, with their own story... Today I was sitting on a bench enjoying the view, when an older lady asked if she could join me... she said she was coming to say

After last night's thunderstorm, it was a fresh start, but one with oxygen in the air.
With the ferry back across the Maas and immediately a few km crisscrossing through the woods. Switch off your brain and go...
The village of Well caught my attention to have a coffee and visit the castle grounds. And

Today the intention was to walk the Mene and Jordaan walk, but I strayed somewhere... because I wanted to see the water mill and the "Pallox" in Hoksem. And also because the weather was beautiful and I wanted to be outside a bit longer...
After the past, rainy week, the valleys of the Mene, the Jordaan
