15km Night Walk from Hermann-Debroux to place Wiener in Boitsfort

Are you ready for a beautiful 16km night walk from Hermann Debroux to Boitsfort through Forêt de Soignes?

We will walk for about 16Km from Hermann-Debroux Metro station through Forêt de Soignes to arrive around 22:30 in Place Wiener at Boitsfort, where we will have a farewell drink in the pub "Le Club".

You can come either by means of public transportation or by car. *It's not a loop*, but if you leave the car at Hermann-Debroux, it's 4 tram stops (6 min, line 8) from Place Wiener to go back to Hermann-Debroux. Last tram is at 12:59. Otherwise Hermann-Debroux is around 20 min. walk from Place Wiener.

We will walk at a medium pace, 5 km/h on average while walking. Please bring some food, we will have a picnic along the way, at least 1,0 L of water, snacks, and good walking shoes, in goretex would be an excellent choice. Have your GSM fully charged, and a spare battery pack. Better if you have a torch with you. But please use it only when really necessary
