In addition to the 60 km, a 20 km walk is also on the program.
“Long-distance walking is becoming more and more popular. And we see that the demand for well-organized challenges is increasing”, confirms Greg Broekmans, for Golazo. “The AG Belgian Coast Walk on May 11 already attracts more than 7,000 participants. We also want to offer these participants a new challenge in the fall. Furthermore, there is enormous potential in Brussels. Not only in terms of participants, but obviously also in terms of the route. The greenest capital in Europe lives up to its name. This is an incredibly beautiful loop around the city. All participants will be surprised.”
