What does Belgium has to offer for you crazy outdoor goofies? Isn’t it all about low land boringness over there?
The Ardennes are your answer, my friend…
Forests, meandering rivers, rolling hills, wildlife and even some sheer rock faces!
We even have our own “high” plateau!
What? A plateau? A highland? In Belgium?
Yep. And it’s just high enough to even host some snow over some cold winter weeks.
We even have gentle alpine ski slopes over there and some nice cross-country skiing.
No, that’s not a joke!
It’s called the High Fens, and it was the decor of our first guided outing with members of Hiking Advisor, another project where I am deeply involved. Hiking Advisor is a small NGO with the aim of promoting safe, responsible and pleasant backpacking. The site is in Dutch, hence our target audience.
This way we ended up with 15 aspiring winter hikers in our wake. Some stills and a short video impression will do the rest.
Jullie hebben dat beide perfect gedaan 😉 komen er nog meer foto’s van jouw online? Op Flickr ofzo bijvoorbeeld?
Winter fun. Good to see you guys out enjoying yourselves.
Wonderful pictures and video ! Bèire 😉

Dear Patagoniandreams. By any change, is it possible to get the (overall) taken route? I’m planning myself a 2 day trip in the same region and got inspired by this one. Thanks in advance
