Tips from the Community

Viviane
March 23, 2026, Totem Poles by Koen Vandewalle

Where trees whisper and paths wander, stories rise in wooden totems. With wings spread, the owl watches from above, as if it has made time itself stand still. Faces in trunks, shaped by a saw's hand, rough and alive, tamed by wind and weather. Here art cuts through wood and light, and every grain tells a mythical poem. Walk and look, let the forest slow you down, between roots and silence that dare to carry questions. He who slows down here and dares to truly see, may perhaps find himself in the wood as well.

Saturn – Bearers of Time Heavy and silent, with rings so grand, he bears time openly on his shoulders. Slowly he turns, cold and far, an ancient guardian around his star. With strength and calm he stands his ground, the burden of ages in his hand. Stern and wise, with gaze to space, he guards time in silence and grace. Look up and see him go: Saturn teaches us to stand still.

Uranus – The Tilted Giant A strange world, skewed and cool, quietly turns its own peculiar goal. Not straight ahead, but on its side, Uranus glides through the celestial tide. With icy blue and distant might, it keeps its secrets in the night. No fiery storm, but silent splendor, a planet conceived with a different gender. Whoever looks here and waits a while, sees how strange can also bring a smile.

March 23, 2026, Tudor Herb Garden

Discover the scents and flavors of yesteryear in the Tudor Herb Garden, a charming and soothing place in the grounds of Tudor Castle. In this well-kept garden grow numerous herbs that were once – and still are – used in the kitchen and herbal medicine. Stroll past the various plants and let your senses be stimulated by the scents and colors. The clear layout and the peaceful setting make this an ideal place to slow down and enjoy nature in a different way. A small oasis where knowledge, tradition, and relaxation come together. A pleasant and fragrant stopover that adds extra character to your walk.

Discover the charm of the former inn Hermitagie, a place where history is still tangible. This characterful farmhouse with its white facades and red shutters is reminiscent of a time when travelers stopped here for rest and refreshment. Today, the site radiates above all peace and authenticity, in the middle of a rural environment. The various buildings around the yard give you a good impression of how life was organized here in the past. The whole breathes simplicity, tradition and a touch of nostalgia. A special place to pause and reflect on the past, while enjoying the silence and the open landscape.

Pause at the Kruis der Gefusilleerden in Tillegembos, a solemn memorial site with deep historical significance. This is where resistance fighters were executed during World War II. The simple wooden cross and memorial plaque bring their story to life, inviting reflection and respect. The tranquil forest surroundings enhance the silence and weight of this place. Here, you walk not only through nature but also through a piece of history that must not be forgotten. An impressive stop that remembers courage, sacrifice, and the value of freedom.
