Welcome to hiking group The Buitenbeentjes by Kim François
Who is the walking coach?
Kim François (47) decided to become a Pink Ribbon walking coach in 2021. As a Pinky Pioneer, she wants to help people on their way to greater vitality and, according to her, walking is the ideal sport for that.
In three words, Kim would describe herself as caring, enthusiastic and eager to learn. The best compliment she ever received was "Glad you're just here."
How often do we go hiking?
The Buitenbeentjes meet twice a month for a Saturday afternoon walk, meeting at 2 p.m. In addition, they go hiking once a month on Thursday evenings. Each time for a route of 5 to 7 kilometers.
What region are we hiking in?
Kim walks in the region of Herenthout and surrounding areas.
