December 21, 2021,Bolderberg : Bovy - kanaal - circuit - wijers

Healthy walk at -5° and full sun. Departed from the Provincial Domain Bovy with its beautiful ponds. Via forest paths to the Albert Canal and the canal bend of the Terlaemen circuit. Even more beautiful forest path along the Laambeek towards Wijers and via the other side of the circuit and the Galgenberg back to start. Enjoyed.
