Icon description route Description

We took this walk on 11/17/2025 (14,010 steps)

This loop walk takes you through the Den Diel nature reserve, a beautiful piece of Kempen nature. You walk through quiet forests and along the Desselse Neet, which appears remarkably straightened here. The marshy area is made accessible via various boardwalks, bringing you close to the water and nature.

Along the way, you pass sights such as Lock 4 Dessel, the Sas4 Tower with panoramic views, the World War II Memorial, the playful Biodiversity Tower, and the historic Witte Haas, a dining and drinking venue. The route is largely car-free and combines nature, waterways, and culture into a delightful walk full of variety and tranquility.

Happy walking,
