We were in Waxweiler again for some hiking / Scotland training with Andy & Mika yesterday. We even had decent weather and walked the ‘Devonpfad’ which is really a great walk, 16km and 500m of ascent with some great views.

Botrange forbidden Zone C
Because Ria is taking the ‘Zone C’ exam to be allowed to lead select groups through the forbidden C zone on the High Fenn, we got the chance to go with her into the Fagne de Cléfaye. The duckboards are rotten, but the nature is completely unspoilt. A very interesting little walk
Good walk
The picturesque church of Weweler
We were out today with Veda, on foot for a change, 🙁 as Ria has some preparation to do for a class next week. Great walk around Burg Reuland on a beautiful sunny day

We went along the lane to Jackson’s coppice which we used to call Badger Wood because there were, and still are, badgers there; surprisingly enough! It is now part of the Wildlife Trust so it has been tidied up and there is a trail around the edge with seats. From there we just went up and round on a big loop to arrive back at home a good hour and a half later. Continue reading
