16km Pad van Ad (Ad's Path) in the south of Leuven.

Ad's Path (Pad van Ad) is a hiking trail south of Leuven that passes by several sculptures made by artist Ad Wouters. Ad's Path passes through Heverleebos and Meerdaalwoud for a total distance of normally 26.5 kilometers. Jo however adapted the route to reduce the distance to 16 km along the most interesting parts mostly through the forest. First, we will take TEC bus 18 to the furthest point in Haasrode and walk back towards Zoete Waters in Oud-Heverlee. From there we can take bus 337 back to Leuven.

Aside from Wouters' oak wood sculptures, you'll also see the two oldest trees in the forest and we pass by several other worthwhile attractions, like De Kluis, Speelbos, a primitive camping site, a natural spring, Zoete Waters playground, and Don Bosco.

• Jo is the event host of this event and he initially wrote the description found on Wikivoyage: https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Ad%27s_Path (It's being heavily edited lately, because the article will be featured soon and go on the front page of the English Wikivoyage).
That article in turn was based on this description: http://www.adwouters.be/padvanad/ .

Arjen is on holiday.

• Jo would like to walk with a regular pace of 4.5-5 km/h.
