Walk schedule in November 2024

Our walks take approximately 1 hour and a half to 2 hours. Of course, as always, they are subject to changes in the weather. So please check here on the blog before you head out to ensure that the walk leader has not made any last minute adjustments to her plans. 

Sturdy shoes are recommended. Several walkers find trekking poles useful, particularly if the paths are wet or muddy. Dogs on leads are welcome on our walks. Where forest/parkland zoning rules allow, you may take off the lead, with the agreement of the walk leader, but the dog must be well behaved and stay close to its owner

Reminder: please let the leader know if you are coming to the walk.

Paulette's walk at Château de la Hulpe on 5th August

No other WIC walkers showed up today, but the carpark was full of visitors, so I decided to walk on my own in the beautiful property of Château de la Hulpe and take some photographs of its highlights and charming secret corners. I even sat down next to the Folon Blue man  with whom I  had a chat :)

For information, the potholes on the access road have finally been smoothed over.

I did check the access to the La Hulpe road from the Groenendael crossroad on the Ring and it is accessible and open in both directions.
