The boardwalk through the Wooldse Venn was closed for a long time due to Corona measures. Unfortunately, Komoot also has locks in it that no longer exist. Furthermore, paths have been removed or blocked to protect the moorland. I have sent corrections to Komoot and hope that they will be implemented soon.
