Monthly walk: Storytelling walk

Sun, 29 Nov 2026 · 14:30
Voor café Boer Janssens, Ghent
Free
🍀🌌🔥 A walk full of stories that take you from the Meersen to the myths of the Celts. 🌙🔮🌿 🗓 Sunday, November 29, 2026 – 14:30 to 17:00 Storytelling walk – where nature and imagination meet Step out of time for a moment... and walk into a world where trees whisper, paths know stories, and every turn hides a surprise 🌿✨ During this monthly walk, we don't just let nature speak for itself, but also for all those stories that have been haunting this place for centuries. We travel from the Meersen to the mysterious world of myths and legends, with a nod to the Celts and their festivals, rituals, and customs. And yes — the church also took a piece of the pie later on. Along the way, old stories emerge: some you vaguely recognize from your childhood, others make you prick up your ears. Why do Easter and Christmas actually have more to do with nature than you think? What do the 'tonnekesbrand' in Geraardsbergen and Scherpenheuvel have to do with old traditions? And why do names like 'Judas ear' or 'devilish oak leaves' sound just a little more exciting than they look? Spiders, trees, and mushrooms also turn out to be surprisingly good storytellers... if you know what to look for. 🌙 Let yourself be carried away by a walk full of nature, history, and a touch of magic. Because those who listen carefully discover that stories are everywhere — you just have to want to hear them.
