The walking distance is 13.5 km. Be sure to wear good hiking shoes. Walking sticks are not a must, but if they make your walk easier, then of course you can use them.

You can take a break at café De Nachtmis in the center of Meldert after 8 km. There is no food option here!

At 70 meters away is frituur 't Patatje, where you can grab a fry to go.
Address: Pastorijstraat 7, Lummen.

Opposite the fry shop is bakery Schepers.

A few houses further from the fry shop is a Spar Express store that is also open on Saturdays, where you can restock on drinks or buy a cookie.

So make sure to bring a picnic for the road, to carry in your backpack, or … see above!

After the walk, you can chat comfortably at Herberg De Pastorie, either inside or outside on the terrace.
