The Province of Zeeland, the Stichting Landschapsbeheer Zeeland (foudation for landscape management) and the Route Bureau Zeeland are developing a network of walking routes in Zeeland.
It will be an opportunity for all kinds of people to go out and see, learn and experience more of the historical elements and landscape of this countryside. So, while walking they enjoy the fresh air, watch the birds in the sky and learn about the cultural heritage at the same time. Moreover, this situation has great social effects. Local people are more involved in the management, get enthousiastic and take people out to discover their own region and history.

It is not the change we need to debate, it is the level of risk of damage as a result of the change, on which we need to focus. -
