HIDDEN GEMS IN THE MAROLLES
Join us on Sunday, 8 February 2026 for a relaxed Photoresk photo walk through the Marolles, Brussels’ most characterful quarter. We’ll meet at 11:15 at Place du Jeu de Balle, explore lesser‑known corners and textures, then visit at least one exhibition linked to the PhotoBrussels Festival. We’ll wrap with lunch in the Marolles (vegetarian option available), with Matonge as a backup lunch zone. **Plan** * 11:15 Meet at Place du Jeu de Balle – entrance of the church Maria Immaculata. * Hidden‑gems walk: flea market, Rue Haute/Rue Blaes, murals and courtyards. * Exhibition: one PhotoBrussels Festival venue * Lunch: Marolles bistro/café; one vegetarian option guaranteed. * Public transport only; short, frequent hops; mostly walking. **Who’s coming** * Brussels and members traveling from Heerlen (NL), Cologne, Luxembourg, and elsewhere (primarily by train). Aim to arrive Brussels‑Central 10:30–10:45. See also [Photoresk.com ](https://photoresk.com/events/photoresk-brussels-hidden-gems-in-the-marolles/) **What to bring** * Compact kit, comfortable shoes with grip, rain/wind shell, and a sense of curiosity for “hidden gems.” Non‑flash museum etiquette. **Weather plan** * We’ll adapt for rain/wind/cold with covered routes and indoor photo options (churches, galleries, arcades). Final go/modify/pivot posted on the morning. **RSVP** * Please RSVP early and update if your plans change.

Place du Jeu de Balle flea market is active mornings (ends \~14:00). Many shops in the Marolles have variable Sunday opening; we’ll treat browsing as a bonus.
Trooz - Pepinster (22km)
Trooz - Pepinster (22km)
It may be winter but we still need to keep our legs in shape, so let's do some climbing with a hike from **Trooz to Pepinster** (\~22km, 550m elevation). We will climb out of the valley of the Vesdre, follow a pilgrimage route through the forest and finish the walk along the valley of the Hoëgne to Pepinster. With luck, there will be a bar open for our traditional drink (optional) before taking the train back to Brussels. **The weather forecast is partly sunny but quite cold, so bring warm clothes and rain jacket just in case. The path will be muddy and slippery in places so wear good shoes, preferably walking boots.** **We will walk at an average speed of 5km/h. This is quite fast.** We will walk both on paved and unpaved roads. I’ve never walked this route before, so it’s possible there are some mistakes in the planning. **You can find the GPX track here:** [https://mapy.com/s/natenomugu](https://mapy.com/s/natenomugu) **Meeting point and train** We will meet at **8:45** in front of the Starbucks in **Brussels Central**. The train **IC 507 (Eupen)** leaves from **platform 3 at 9:01** (you can also join this train at Brussel Zuid 8:56, Brussel Noord 9:07). It arrives at **10:01 in Liege** where we change on to train **S41 5010 (Verviers-Central & Aachen Hbf) at 10:19** from **platform 5**. We arrive in **Trooz at 10:34.** **Train tickets** \- Single Brussels to Trooz\, € 14\.40 or € 8\.60 with Train\+ \- Single Pepinster to Brussels\, € 14\.90 or € 9 with Train\+ You probably want to buy the Train+ card for the price of € 6 (1 month) or € 48 (12 months). It can be bought in the SNCB/NMBS app or at ticket machines. **Train back to Brussels** There are trains every hour at xx:13 from Pepinster to Liege, changing on to the Brussels train arriving 1h42 minutes later. **Specifics** Distance: \~22 km Elevation gain: \~550 m Net walking time: \~5.5h Level: ***Intermediate (lots of climbing)*** **In the unlikely case of too bad weather, we may cancel a hike, even a few hours before the event. If this happens, we will of course update the Meetup website and send out a message to those registered. So, it is important to have access to either the [Meetup.com](http://Meetup.com) website and/or your email.** **What to bring** **\- lunch \- we will *not* stop at a cafe/restaurant for lunch** \- comfortable hiking clothes – waterproof hiking shoes \- extra socks to change \+ compeed for blisters \- water \(min 2l\) and enough food for the breaks \- sun protection oil\, a head and sunglasses OR a raincoat (please consult the weather forecast on [www.meteo.be](http://www.meteo.be/)) \- mosquito/tick repellent \- some money for drinks/snacks/etc **Basic rules** The number of participants is limited, so make sure that you RSVP only if you really intend to come.

Sunday Coffee in the Marolles @Bar Mazette
Sunday Coffee in the Marolles @Bar Mazette
This Weekend Morning Coffee Meeting - Sunday Edition - will take place at Bar Mazette, in the heart of the Marolles, and will be hosted by Emilia and Adriano. Newbies welcome! 🗓 **Sunday, 8 February** ⏰ **from 10:30** 👥 **limited to 12 people only** **Address:** **Bar Mazette** **Place du Jeu de Balle 4** **1000 Brussels** This is one of our Sunday editions, which are usually meant to test new places outside our usual coffee locations. These editions are smaller and more experimental, and focus as much on the place and the neighbourhood as on the group itself. *** ### ⏰ Timing The **core time** of the event is **10:30 – 12:00**. That’s when everyone should be there. Because this is a **very small group (12 people maximum)**, **registration is obligatory**. *** ### ⚠️ IMPORTANT — please read carefully Places are usually **very limited** on Sundays. Please **do not register if you are unsure you can come**. If you register and later realise you can’t make it, **cancel as soon as possible, latest on Saturday afternoon.** There is often a **waiting list**, and it’s only fair to give people on it a real chance to join. Registering and not showing up means someone else stayed home for nothing. Thank you for being fair and respectful. If you’re on the waiting list, please **check your status on Saturday evening at the latest**. See you on Sunday ☕ *** ### 📍 The place & the area Mazette is located right next to **Place du Jeu de Balle**, where Brussels’ best-known flea market takes place every Sunday morning. The area is busy, sometimes messy, full of objects with past lives and people just passing through. It’s a very typical Marolles atmosphere. Mazette opened in 2022 as a **cooperative project**. It was created by people who wanted a place that belongs to the neighbourhood and works with it. It’s not only a bar, and not only about beer. Part of the beer is brewed on site, with the tanks located below the bar. The food follows the same logic: bread baked in-house, a short menu, seasonal ingredients, and dishes that are simple and meant to be shared. Nothing complicated, nothing rushed. The place also works as a neighbourhood meeting point. Locals come in after the flea market, others stay for events or just to sit for a while. Conversations overlap, people stay longer than planned, and the space naturally shifts between café, bar and meeting place. For a small Sunday morning coffee meeting, it’s a very fitting setting: informal, local, and closely connected to the Marolles around it

Into the Woods... (~14-15k)
Our journey takes us once more under the towering beech cathedral of the **Forêt de Soignes**. We’ll begin our transition from city to nature at the threshold where Brussels meets the wild: the entrance to **Bois de la Cambre**. Standing before the **stark white pavilions**—those historic sentinels of the park—we’ll gather our strength before disappearing into the deep greens and dappled light of the ancient woodland. We will go over light trails and firm forest paths (trail shoes aren't a necessity but advisable) - depending on the weather conditions the route may be adapted.

Sunday Pool Evening + Language Exchange +Pizza
Sunday Pool Evening + Language Exchange +Pizza
A relaxed pool night and language exchange for curious, open-minded people in Brussels. Pool, drinks, and real conversation without the fake networking vibe. This is **not** a tournament and not a “watch one guy run the table” event. We rotate games, mix people, and keep it social. Use our whatsapp Chat also to RSVP and updates! https://chat.whatsapp.com/F2hTxZ4TT3hHICiihX1Efy ### **What to expect** * Casual pool * Rotations so everyone plays * **Language exchange**: EN/FR/NL/ES/IT (and whatever else shows up) Switch languages anytime, no pressure ### **Food** The venue is right next to **Dea’s Pizza**. During the night, feel free to grab a takeaway pizza and **eat it at Taverne Magnolia**. ### **Cost** * Everyone pays their own drinks and table time * If we share tables, we split costs fairly (1 game 1 Euro) ### **Safety and respect policy (non-negotiable)** We’ve had reports of creeps at other Brussels meetups bothering women. That does not happen at our events. * The host will actively keep an eye on the vibe, especially **women’s comfort and safety** * **No harassment, no sexual comments, no persistent flirting after a “no,” no invasive questions, no following people around** * If someone feels unsafe or uncomfortable, go to the host directly. The host will intervene. ### **Meet point** Meet inside near the pool tables at **Taverne Magnolia**. If you’re late, post in the event chat so rotations don’t start without you.
Trollenbos – Provincial Park De Schorre
Trollenbos – Provincial Park De Schorre
Hello, beautiful people! For my last walk as organizer, I want to see the trolls. Last time we went for this walk, we couldn't see all the trolls and the terrain was a bit more adventurous than many of us preferred, so this time the goal is here: easier walk and let's see as many trolls as possible. https://www.komoot.com/tour/2228140765 Komoot says that a segment is highly dangerous, from my exploration on Google Maps and previous experience it doesn't seem so, but if something looks anyhow dangerous, we'll skip it. The usual rules apply: * We wait for 5 minutes after the starting time if no one has announced they will be late. * If someone has informed us they will be late, we wait up to 15 minutes after the starting time. * The location of the group is shared in the WhatsApp group for approximately 45-50 minutes after the starting time for those arriving more than 15 minutes late. * To ensure everyone feels comfortable, and since some walking paths may not be dog-friendly, we kindly ask that you do not bring dogs or other pets. * Walks may be canceled due to forecasted heavy rain or temperatures above 30°C or below 5°C. A final decision will be made by 10 AM on the day of the walk. **Whatsapp group**: [https://chat.whatsapp.com/BrlR1O98MTKLhciJSRNRlZ](https://chat.whatsapp.com/BrlR1O98MTKLhciJSRNRlZ) (only for members who have attended at least one event or after contacting the organizer)

Saturday morning hike
Saturday morning hike
Hello Hikers!! Welcome to our Saturday morning hike at 9:00 AM! Many - but not all - of our hikes originate at Great Falls Park, off Georgetown Pike. Unless you already have an appropriate pass, the park entrance fee is $20/car for a single visit or $35/car for a 12-month pass that is good for the Maryland side of the river too. Come twice and you'll save 5 bucks! For the record, all scheduled hikes will be held even when it rains, snows or is super hot or cold unless the weather is too extreme to be safe. Our standard hike is a relatively easy 1 hour plus loop hike at a moderate pace. Usually a hike-extension is offered for those wishing to add a few miles more, up to 7 miles or so total. In spite of our Meetup name, we also hike in nearby parks such as Riverbend, Scott's Run, Turkey Run, Seneca, and Billy Goat A or C on theMaryland side of the Potomac. We have also scheduled hikes in Shenandoah NP and at Sugarloaf in Maryland. Please note that phone connections can be iffy in the park so don't call you are running late, but texting may work. It's best for you to be on time as we set out pretty much on time. This 1+ hour of hiking (or more) is a great way to relax, turn off your cell phones, make new friends, and get some exercise. I hope to see you on the next hike!! Thanks Dick, Julie, and Katie P.S. We will meet at the lower parking lot. Once you pass the ranger's booth, make an immediate U-turn to the right and follow the road downhill to the parking lot. We meet by the big rock at the far end of the lot.
Valentines Day Morning Rough Terrain Hike  ❤️💘💝
Valentines Day Morning Rough Terrain Hike ❤️💘💝
Meet and end at Madison Community Center parking lot for a hike along the Potomac River on a loop through the woods with some rough walking on trails with tree roots and a creek crossing as well as boulder climbing. Difficulty is hard but not in length, more the terrain is rough with some hand over hand boulder climbing and walking across woods. Some hiking on a sidewalk and mostly on established trails. Estimate 2.5-3 hours just to give some time to check out the river. We will see a few waterfalls and maybe some birds! Lots of beautiful forests, a creek or three, and adventure!! I have ice grips for my shoes in case the trail is snowy, holding hike even if it’s cold or snowy! Dress warm bring water and snacks
