Description
Discover the Duisburg Plateau and the Ijse River between Huldenberg and Loonbeek. Walk past the Huldenberg castle grounds. In the castle’s greenhouses, gardener Felix Sohie grew the first true greenhouse grapes. A bronze commemorative plaque at the entrance gate honors this visionary horticulturist. From the western slope of the IJse Valley, you’ll enjoy a stunning panoramic view. Head into the Margijs Forest, where the bandit leader Charlepoeng was killed by French soldiers in 1799.

Sunday, January 25, 2026 by C.B.An easy and pleasant route to follow. It starts with a view of the castle, then heads into the countryside after a short climb: woods, fields, riverbanks. In addition to the castle, you pass the remains of a few water mills (you can see the penstocks for the water) and a rather remarkable (and unidentified) building at point 216.

Saturday, September 3, 2022 by Yasmin VdCGreat hike! You are almost immediately in peace and nature. Few stimuli along the way which can be nice for owners and animals. Sometimes a bit monotonous because of the many straight, semi-paved roads. Streams at the end. Parking without problems. Ice bar as reward right across parking lot = highly recommended!

Thursday, April 8, 2021 by Danny Van cauwenbergheVery nice walk in beautiful region, where you always walk in nature only a small piece of track. Good to do even in rainy weather. Sign 23 is back there! Slope in the beginning is not too bad.

Sunday, February 14, 2021 by A.S.Very nice hike with fantastic views. Only junction 23 was difficult to find (according to me is sign gone?). Lots of variation in landscapes. Wear good footwear. Super!

Monday, January 18, 2021 by herman verheirstraetenDid a few weeks ago. Particularly beautiful! Starts with steep climb, which is why I would do the hike in reverse. The climb is then gradual. Particularly nice long stretch at the top of the hill. Reasonably easy to walk in wet weather also with low footwear. Easy parking at the start.
