Icon description route Description

From C-mine you pedal via stately shaft trestles, the Molenvijverpark and Kattevennen straight into Hoge Kempen National Park. At A Station in As you climb a replica of the first derrick. In Zwartberg, the slag heap draws the skyline and surprises LABIOMISTA with art and nature. The Coal Railway leads you to Thor Park, the old Waterschei mining site. The valley of the Stiemerbeek is your green guide back to the starting point.
TIP: Explore the Genk underground at C-mine Expedition
