March 2026: no picnic table in sight. It's still a lovely path here, of course! It's a shame you have to walk between two wire fences.

pleasant walk in the region of Asse, even in bad weather :-) Alternating passages in the woods, roads with little traffic and country paths. Little difference in height and practicable paths in rainy weather. Parking available at the start, at the Onbevlekt Hart van Mariakerk church. Possibility of picnic at km 7.20.

Departure from the parking lot next to the church …
