The winding Lingedijk is a beautiful walking path along orchards. Here you walk past rows of blossoms in the spring and juicy pears in the summer, because Dutch conference pears grow here!

This route is not difficult. It is quite long, but there is hardly any elevation difference and large parts can even be done with a wheelchair. The route is mainly paved and asphalted. There are some parts of a klompenpad. And in Asperen it goes off the road for a bit, but for the most part it is quite boring. …

So further along the …

Where better than in Rivierenland on picturesque dikes, past cozy towns and the meandering Linge to celebrate spring?

And what luck with the beautiful weather last Wednesday. Treacherous too, yet again a few burnt spots of skin.

Concerned a walk from 2 years ago in Corona time, but for Komoot era when I still secretly didn't necessarily take the train.. …
