March 29, 2024,Zwalmbeek wandelroute

Under a sky full of clouds and a persistent wind we walked through the Zwalm Valley, the Zwalmbeek walking route of Routen.be (routen.be/lzwalmbeek-wandelroute). It is a varied walk along paths, normal roads, paved and unpaved. And of course a beautiful stretch along the Zwalm. We started at the Zwalmmolen.
