Icon description route Description

Parking: Old Station of Eisden, Spoorwegstraat 10, Maasmechelen.

Signage: GPS/Hiking app.

With 108 meters of elevation gain, some physical condition is required. You walk almost exclusively in the forest. First, a small stretch through the Lanklaarderbos and the majority through the Mechelsbos. The most beautiful part is along 'the Grote Plas' with a stunning view of the 'Twin Terrils' with their currently beautiful autumn colors.

Bench(es): among others after 1.1/2/3.7 and 5.6 km.
