From the small village of Melkwezer, you walk through the fields to the Walsbergen farm and the nature reserve of the same name, with its forests, hayfields, and a pond. Every settlement seems far away here, until, after a while, the village of Wommersom comes into view. The handsome Wommersom Castle was built at the end of the 19th century. The 's Hertogengracht canal takes you all the way to the winding Grote Gete. Along the way, you’ll discover not only the landscapes of the Gete Valley but also a region where local products, such as the Walsberger, hold a special place.
