Itinerary description

Part of the trail is going along the road, but there is not a lot traffic so it’s not that bad. During the hike we crossed just 2 cars and 6 other hikers. There are also nice parts of the trail going trough the woods. You will see many remains of the recent forest fires. Easy going and well marked hike. Around KM 8,8 we took a short cut because we missed a sign, but were fast back on track.

Leuke wandelroute, al loop je wel relatief veel over asfalt. Doordat er weinig tot geen verkeer is, was dit voor ons niet storend. De paden door de bossen maakten bovendien veel goed. De route staat goed aangegeven door middel van de 2 rood/gele strepen. Rond kilometer 8,8 hebben we een markering gemist waardoor we een klein stuk hebben afgesneden, maar ook dat pas was goed beloopbaar. Prima route waar je vooral veel wordt herinnert aan de recente bosbranden.
