Karel Sabbe, the ultrarunner from Anzegem, broke records on the Pacific Crest Trail, the Appalachian Trail, and the Alta Via 2, and conquered the legendary Barkley Marathon. As the world champion of 'Big's Backyard Ultra,' he set a new world record. On November 26, 2023, Karel Sabbe was honored as an honorary citizen of Anzegem, a well-deserved title for his incredible achievements.

The route is suitable for trail runners, hikers, and gravel bikers, starting at the Anzegem sports hall. Follow the Karel Sabbe trail markers and discover the beautiful places of Anzegem.
