Today's itinerary was a different route than usual—not a familiar loop we'd do on autopilot, but one that explores nature and offers a touch of excitement.

And because I was in the area, a 2nd heath walk 😅 This one starts at the campsite, first follow the connecting cross before the effective walking route starts. Here also encountered the tree blue and the small fire butterfly, variegated sand eye, small cabbage white, lemon butterfly, slender amanita, mating water sniffles, blue-winged grasshopper, black alarm clock (grasshopper). Beautiful …

Walking in the autumn in the valley of the Kiksteenbeek and around the Kiksteenbronmeer is always a hit. Beautiful paths and countless beautiful snapshots of the lake and surroundings. Add a beautiful heathland landscape with its large grazers and the experience is complete. Five star walk.

Walked at the Kikbeek source.
Still a beautiful area
A few days of sun and the broom will already have flowers in some places.
Adds some color to the landscape
