Itinerary description

Very nice trail in Bentael reserve with max peaceful surroundings in a steep valley, extremely well preserved with lot of stairs, handrails, cables, ramps...
U’ll be walking through cliffs surrounded by different type of greeneries, part of the forest is oaks, the other is pines. Astonishing diversity.
Very important note: In the eastern part of the trail i went out of the loop towards the river down, its a wrong way!! and i stated it in the posted waypoint, make sure u dnt follow me there, u’ll be in very slippery chute: Dnt keep following the stairs down towards the river, stay on the upper path to ur right.
The trail requires some physical efforts, and be cautious when walking in the dead leaves which makes the floor very slippery.
GPS is a bit inaccurate in the bottom of the valley, but trails are clear and its hard to get lost.
