Several hiking trails have been laid out in the Wijnendale forest. But this hike takes us past some you-know-you-know who don't use these hikes... Be sure to check the sightseeing info when you 're there. They tell you what you can see! You will enjoy the walk twice over!
We start at the Wijndendalebos car park . It is also possible to arrive by public transport .
We enter the Fonteinpad and soon reach the Chapel of Our Lady. A little further we pass the entrance to the ice house.
So far the trees have obscured the view, but a little further we have a nice view of Wijnendale Castle. We continue along the Fonteinpad and now have to go up the slope that forms the Ruidenberg ahead. Right then left we cross the field to the Roopipe reservoir and fountain with its Grade I listed fountain house. This is where the Brunnenbach rises.
We leave the forest on the cobbled road and reach the chapel of the Sisters Clarastraat. We walk down the street and turn into Fonteinstraat . We pass a Carving Koen totem pole and a covered picnic area. We are now 5 km away.
We walk to the edge of the forest and turn left twice to return. Turn right to the Wulvedreef, named after the Wulvemote. At the end we reach a picnic area at the Planterijdreef playground . We follow him back to the parking lot.
