Paulette's Walk in Overijse

Today's Route

Many thanks to Paulette for leading us on today's walk from the centre of Overijse, with its famous almost-vertical climb at the very start of the route!  Is this what put so many people off walking this afternoon?  Despite the beautiful blue sky, sun and generally perfect walking conditions we were a group of only 4.  We were delighted that Heidi is now back to full walking health and had no problems keeping up with this sometimes challenging route.


We were very happy once we reached the lovely cool and green forest

We all loved Idit's new hair cut!







The pictures make the walk look like a fairly 'flat' route, but in fact it is about the only walk I know that seems to climb and climb and climb, yet only have one very short descent!

As well as walking through lots of lovely forest and farmland, we also passed a couple of architecturally interesting utility buildings.
