About Marieke Duchatteau
I am Marieke, and I love being outdoors. Preferably going for a hike surrounded by peaceful nature, may that be in my own country (The Netherlands) or abroad. One of my other passions is writing, so for me being an editor for komoot is the best of both worlds. I hope to inspire you with varied Collections to go on adventures yourself and explore wonderful places.
Enjoy, and feel free to share your experiences!

To unwind after yesterday's long hike, a slightly shorter walk awaits you today. Enjoy a delicious breakfast and set off on a varied 17-kilometer walk. You won't encounter any restaurants or cafes during the walk, so pack an extra sandwich just in case.
Today's walk is quite different from yesterday's

About halfway along the route, it's lovely to relax at Café Custwijc in Driebruggen. So be sure to leave some room for apple
