Walk in silence in ten stages along the entire Walk of Wisdom . In a small group, every first Saturday of the month. Together with up to 20 others, you will walk the beautiful route under the guidance of two cordial volunteers. There will be an opportunity for exchange during the break. The volunteers choose a few texts that they read aloud for reflection.

Distances and yield

The distance of each stage is +- 16 kilometers with one outlier of 23 kilometers. The hikes can be quite tough with elevation changes. Some walking experience and basic fitness are therefore recommended. We like to keep running together, so we wait for each other and tune in to each other’s pace.

The proceeds of the walks go to the landscape of the Walk of Wisdom. For example, with the money from the previous series, we are paying for a bench at the Geldersch Landscape.
