In Sippenaeken, the route runs along the cycle path of the Le Vieux Moulin campsite. At the B/NL border, there is a large rock that you can pass. The path is paved for about 300 meters but can be a bit muddy after a rainy period. At the end of the path, turn right and immediately left of the road on the tarmac strip. From the Hoeve Termoere junction, the route is easy to travel again.
