Twan Huys: Wandellust

Twan Huys has been a passionate walker throughout his life. From an early age he and his parents set off in the hills of South Limburg, looking for rare orchids, kingfishers and ties. In Walkellust he broadens his horizon and describes the most beautiful hiking areas in the Netherlands. Walking has become a national hobby. It is always inspiring, purifying and sometimes even healing. As Hippocrates, students told his students more than two thousand years ago: "Walking is the best medicine." For all millions of Dutch walkers, Twan Huys Wandellust wrote. He takes us from the Springendal to Tiengemeten, from the Veluwe to the Schoorlse Duinen, from Terschelling to Gerendal in Limburg, and much further.

During this flex stage he tells about his walking experiences, he gives tips, answers questions.
