Enjoy art and nature along the Durmeboorden, in the footsteps of André Bogaert. A large part of the route runs along the meandering Durme, which was once navigable. Now it looks more like a large brook than a river. Just past the Durmedijk you walk along the picturesque Saint Joseph's Chapel, one of the oldest Belgian shrines dedicated to Saint Joseph. Beyond the chapel, quiet country lanes and unpaved roads lead you through the beautifully ordered landscape of the Durmemeersen.

Nature and art.
From the hamlet of Durmen you walk in the direction of the Durme, you follow the meandering river for four kilometers. Once you leave the dike, you will soon arrive at the Sint-Jozef Chapel. From the chapel you return to the starting point through the Durmemeersen. Along the way, 25 reproductions of works by Dré Bogaert have been placed.
Very good marking
Adapted footwear because some pieces can be quite soggy
