1. Have a coffee in the Royal Park at Woodpecker
What could be better than a hot apple juice with ginger and cinnamon and a Brussels waffle to ward off the cold?

Perfect for a takeaway during your walks, you'll find hot drinks (premium tea, hot chocolate, etc.) and even snacks to warm you up. If you're in the Bois de la Cambre park, they also have a kiosk there. Check their Facebook page for opening hours, as these vary depending on the weather. Generally, Woodpecker Parc Royal is open Monday to Sunday from 12 pm to 17 pm.
2. The Wild Duck – a pancake and mulled wine counter in Watermael-Boitsfort
If you go for a walk in the Soignes forest, add a stopover in the direction of Watermael-Boitsfort. What could be better than warming up after exercise in the great outdoors. Le Canard Sauvage and its pancake counter will warm you up. On the menu a lot of good things in take-away such as: sweet crepes, Breton, chocolates and mulled wines, homemade tacos… This will help motivate (big) children to put on their walking shoes and continue the walks.
3. Dairy, mulled wine, krok and fries to take away in Josaphat Park
