Took this beautiful walk with friends. It remains a beautiful area with views of the Maas and private sections through the forest with nice 'ups' and 'downs'. We 'rewarded' ourselves with pancakes @pannekoekenbakker in Plasmolen... (and of course watched the Cyclo-cross World Championships in the afternoon! GO Matthieu!
