My husband is an avid hiker. The longer the trail, the happier he is. He was trained in the army and at sports college. And he trained me well, too. But despite his best efforts, I have decided that long distance hiking is not for me. However, I do not want to deprive you of the lessons I learned.
Hiking The Dutch Camino: The Pieterpad
Spain has its Camino de Santiago. Canada has the Trans-Canada Trail. Peru boasts the Inca Trail. The Netherlands has the Pieterpad.
Many of our trips focus on hiking. Kees is the true long-distance hiker in this family, thriving on long days on a trail and a pack on his back. He walked the Camino de Santiago in Spain twice. In this post we’ll share with you one of his favourite long distance trails: the path of St. Peter, or ‘Pieterspad’ in Dutch.
