Itinerary description

The hike is part of the route leading to the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. It passes through the endless flat fields of the region called Hoogeland – interrupted only by churches on mounds of several metres high. Expect Dutch panoramas characterized by immense nothingness, sporadic small villages, picturesque churches and a number of typical windmills.
