Description by the author

From the House of the Trekkers, the wooded landscapes of the Kluisberg give way to the agricultural plains of the Scheldt valley. The river and its tributaries shape the landscape, but also the economic activity of the region. Admire from the green path along the Scheldt the relentless ballet of the inland vessels. Each of them transports the equivalent of 45 trucks with trailers of 30 tons! Along the way, you follow and cross the Ronne, one of the many tributaries of the Scheldt. It springs from the Pays des Collines and its bends give the countryside of Celles its bucolic character.
