We start at the map of the running routes near the sports hall on Hoge Heirweg, Sint-Martens-Latem, where you can choose between 3 running routes/distances:

-Green loop is 5 km

-Blue loop is 7.5 km

-Red loop is 10 km

Make sure to pay attention to the 3 colors of the arrows along the way so you don't miss the turnoff for the blue loop and later the red loop.

We start through some avenues with unpaved ground: Kapitteldreef, Muldersdreef, and the Red Beukendreef, where you will run past very beautiful trees.

Green swings slightly to the right here. If you follow blue, you will reach the picturesque Deurle via the blue arrows. After the village center, continue following the blue arrows and return towards Latem through some avenues and our famous beautiful lime tree. Meanwhile, you will be back on the green route. After some avenues, you will reach the golf course. A bit further, the blue (in the meantime back to green) route leads back to the sports hall, but if you want to follow the red arrows, turn left here.

Thus, you will run along the beautiful golf course for a while. Then you will follow Bosstraat, Eikeldreef, and Berkenbosdreef, where you are already on the grounds of the Latemse Meersen. A bit further, you can see the meadows of Meersen through the trees, where in summer, among other things, orchids and other wildflowers bloom. The Leie can also be seen in the distance, and if you are an early morning runner, you might even spot some deer.

Next, you will run back along the heath hills and Bosstraat, and reach Latemstraat again via some small paths, where you will pass a charming chapel with a pond. There you are back on the green route and will soon arrive at the starting point, the sports hall.
