Itinerary description

Brussels is definitely a city of hidden charms which begin to reveal themselves almost as soon as you step off the tram at Stalle. Highly recommended for anyone who considers the city to simply be ugly and grey, this trail will probably make you change your mind. While we do step out of the capital for about half the journey, nevertheless, it's amazing just how easy it is to get into the countryside or a verdant forest.

Although we didn't quite finish this one - having to cut it short about three kilometres from the finish line due to a sudden downpour that had us running, luckily, towards a bus shelter where we then waited for the next bus back into town - the thirteen or so kilometres we did do were full of surprises.

From the GR Sentiers guide, "Randonnées en boucle à Bruxelles et dans sa périphérie."

    Great trail, a bit muddy in places, but refreshingly 'out of the city'. It took about 3.5 hours to do. I can imagine it would be lovely on a nice summer's day.

    Superbe balade à la périphérie de Bruxelles. Difficile d'imaginer de si beaux endroits si proches de la capitale. Le soleil était de la partie et j'ai vraiment apprécié :-) Merci pour ce bel itinéraire

    Hice esta ruta con un grupo de 14 personas y todo fue bien, en algunos puntos hay que prestar atención para no salirse del camino. La ruta es sencilla

    Itinéraire varié, très beau, il faut faire attention une ou deux fois pour ne pas se tromper mais globalement très facile. J'ai mis 3h et 11 min.

    Ignoti nulla cupido; deze wandeling was enorm verrassend: landelijke omgeving met moerassen en moestuinen met een bosrijke ruimte en dit op een steenworp van Brussel (omgeving Ukkel). Een aanrader.
