Bedeutung
Walking for a significant distance.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Walking is a core part of Dutch leisure, often called 'uitwaaien'. Similar to the Netherlands, Flemish people enjoy 'een flinke wandeling' in the Ardennes. Germans also value long walks, often referred to as 'Spaziergänge'. The concept of 'friluftsliv' (open-air living) is very similar to the Dutch 'flink wandelen'.
Use it for health
Dutch people often use this phrase to talk about their health routine.
Don't exaggerate
Only use 'flink' if the walk is actually long or intense.
