If there's one hobby we've all embraced over the past year it has to be walking. And wow, we certainly were reminded of the beauty of our Flemish Ardennes.

With the long Ascension weekend and great weather ahead, we thought it would be the perfect moment to share a beautiful walk around Etikhove, our homebase. Experience nature, enjoy the views and let us pamper your palate with a take-out selection of fine wines

To stimulate all senses, we will guide you along some of our favourite places in the region. On different points, we'll share some insider info on the region through our interactive map.

Furthermore, starting at Hof te Cattebeke, the beating heart of Thienpont Wine, we are happy to provide a little extra. On Friday May 14th, you can come by to collect a take-out tasting set of six wines, which are matched to different places during the walk. If you would like to enjoy this, reservation on a specific time slot is required. To respect the current Covid measures, we will only welcome one bubble of max. 10 people at a time for this take-out.

As you can see, you are in for an entertaining, relaxed and informative day out. Register now and walk, talk and taste your way around the heart of Thienpont Wine.

Parcours
We suggest a walk of 15km, starting and ending at our Hof te Cattebeke, we will guide you along our favourite places in the region. Upon departure we will give you access to our online map and we'll show you how it works. The route's difficulty level is easy to medium and at a normal walking tempo, it should take you about 3 hours. The parcours is mapped out in Google Maps, therefore a smartphone is necessary to be able to do the walk.

Take-Out Tasting Set
We provide a selection of six fine wines which come in small plastic bottles, to be collected at our Hof te Cattebek after reservation. These can be tasted during the walk on indicated points where you can sit down, take in the views and enjoy the wines. We advise you to bring a backpak to carry the bottles during the walk and glasses for tasting. Since it is a long weekend, why not make a day out of it and bring your own picnic to enjoy with our wines.

After the walk you will be able to buy the fullsize wine selection, pre-packaged and ready for you to take home. Payment on the spot is possible via Payconiq or in cash
