December 15, 2023,Wandeling Coudekerque-Branche - Bergues (rondje)
Beautiful winter walk with a paved section on the outward route to Bergues (especially after rainfall) and the return route mainly through the forest (Bois des Forts). Excellent lunch at Le Bruegel restaurant. Note: wear suitable footwear, as it can be quite muddy in some places.
