Description
Parking is available at the 'Chapel of Our Lady of Silence' on the Geheul, near KP 74.
The route runs largely through the Zwart Goor nature reserve, a varied landscape with old avenues of oaks and beeches, heathland, forests, and a pond. The area is accessible year-round on the walking paths. Sturdy footwear is recommended in rainy weather and in winter. Dogs are allowed provided they are leashed.
For wheelchair users, there are paved lanes and a special wheelchair walk; follow the red route for this (the departure is "not" at KP 74). There are five oases with wheelchair-accessible benches spread across the area.
