Gnome King Kyrië Adventure Trail - Discover the magical trail
Life wasn’t always easy in the Brabant countryside.
The farmers had to work hard.
And despite all the ploughing, planting and fertilising, the poor sandy soil yielded little.
The farms were relatively small.
Setbacks, such as a season with too much rain, often had disastrous consequences.

These kind-hearted creatures would secretly carry out odd jobs for a farmer who was ill or in need of help.
Or was it, after all, the sense of community amongst the local farmers?
Discover the magical adventure trail of Gnome King Kyrië.
