....is a small town near Geel (North East of Brussels - about one hour's drive) famous for its sandy soil. As you can see, this extends even into the woods.
Bel is on the TOM-TOM but it is not on many maps - we found our way there by negotiating the Aarschot Ring, which has a windmill so is more pretty than it sounds.
The unmarked walking route (10 kilometres plus 1000 kilometres and/or years wasted trying to understand the stupid directions in our guidebook) starts by an old graveyard and then takes you to lots of gloomy pine forests. We needed the walk though as last night we went out with a group of very select young ladies, the oldest of which was 88 - think we had about four courses.
