Difficult
Departure from Marquillies (Nord)
A long route combining the Libaude PR® walk and BaudouinB’s ‘From station to station: Marquillies – Don-Sainghin’ walk, for which I have reproduced a large part of the description with his permission. It’s long and incredibly flat, but you’re on narrow paths almost the whole time. I’ve classified it as difficult because of its length and the flatness, which means you have to walk at a steady pace the whole time.
