The tracks include all the familiar features of the past 53 years of the Two-Day Walk: plenty of nature, extensive open spaces, numerous village centres, and ample monuments.
The route maps will be sent out a few days before the Two-Days Walk to everyone who has registered and will also be available on this page from then on.

New 50KM tracks from Knokke to Blankenberge
On Saturday, we will once again venture out on a 50 km walk, starting from Knokke (Station) and walking to Blankenberge, passing along and through dunes, lakes, streams and brooks, polders and castles, before finally arriving in Blankenberge.
Discover, in the order of the route, the footpath through the Golf Course in Knokke, the Zwin and its trendy bistro ‘Nest’, across the border into the Netherlands and the unique village of Retranchement, followed a little later by Sluis, the charming little castle in Oostkerke, the ‘Blinker and Stinker’ duo (officially known as the Leopold Canal and the Schipdonk Canal), the new Natuurpunt Damme visitor centre, the polders of Koolkerke and Dudzele, the Schottenhof (still on our badge and medal in 2024), the 12th-century church tower in Dudzele, Cathemgoed, Ter Doest farm, the white village of Lissewege and the polders between Zwankendamme and Blankenberge.

(Re)new(ed) 32KM tracks
On Sunday, we start from Blankenberge and are introduced to a (re)new(ed) 32 km track. On Sundays, all the routes skirt the coast and wind their way through the polders along well-known and lesser-known roads and paths. We set off from Blankenberge towards De Haan.
The 32 KM route passes the new western breakwater and the Wrakhout Bridge, offers views of the Spioenkop in Wenduine, allows for a brief rest on the beach at Westhinder, lets you enjoy the splendour of De Haan – including La Potiniere and the characteristic tram house – crosses the Bosjes van Wenduine, the Kleiputten van Wenduine, the Groenwaecke visitor centre in the heart of the Uitkerkse Polders and the superb atmosphere of Zuienkerke, before returning via “‘t Klokhof in Uitkerke” – the farm that adorns the badge and medal – to the finish.

The other distances (7, 15 and 24 km) will continue to depart from Blankenberge.
The 7, 15 and 24 KM on Saturday are not the same as on Sunday.

Wheelchair-friendly
On the 7 km and the 15 km, we have made some adjustments here and there so that these too are wheelchair-friendly (and pram-friendly).
Note. Some short sections deviate from the normal course and will be marked separately.
I walk green
The focus on the environment and fair trade is maintained. In this respect, the Two-Days Walk aims to remain an example for other events.
More info on Walking green: this is how to do it.
I walk safely
We also put an emphasis on safety. Walkers will be able to sign the ‘I walk safely’ charter before heading out onto the tracks. In doing so, they take into account the following focal points: ‘I pay attention‘, ‘I walk where I have to‘, ‘I stand out‘.
More info on I walk safely.
