Forests, heathland, and avenues
Around Sint-Job you will find pine forests, old tree-lined avenues, and remnants of heathland — the legacy of centuries of afforestation on poor sandy soil. It is a landscape that looks different in every season: purple in late summer, reddish in November, quiet and clear in winter.
Walking and cycling hubs
The region is intricately connected via node networks. You can map out your own loop of five or fifty kilometres. Maps and routes can be found at the tourism office and via the province.
Picnic from the sandwich shop
For a hike, customers often put together a little pack: a few filled rolls, something to drink, and a piece of pastry. If you are ordering for more than a few people, please call ahead — then everything will be ready when you set off.
