Running

Over the vast Eperheide, through the rolling landscape of the Vijlenerbos and the Holsetterbos and past the most beautiful views: during this 38 kilometer long trail run you will work up a sweat in the breathtakingly beautiful nature of Limburg.

In this rolling environment there is a lot of up and down, but then you have something. Time and again your effort is rewarded with landscapes that stretch to the horizon in front of you.

Climb up narrow paths, run along babbling brooks, catch your breath with a beautiful view and then let your lungs fill with the fresh air of the forests. Take on this challenging trail run and train your fitness, but don't forget to enjoy the beautiful Limburg nature in between!

Along the way you will find more than enough benches to take a rest while enjoying the most beautiful landscapes. Don't forget to bring enough water and a snack for the journey.

The route starts at the parking lot of the Rozenhof campsite in Camerig. If you come by public transport, there are several bus stops where you can get off to pick up the route, for example at the Julianastraat or Krijtland bus stop in Epen or the Frontière bus stop in Gemmenich.

Steep Forest Path near Vaals

Highlight • Trail

Great trail for hill trail training. It goes up quite a bit and due to the extremely uneven surface it is also important to take each step with concentration (at pace). For those who want an extra challenge, go up here after it has rained for a few days.

Volmolen

Highlight • Monument

Incredibly beautiful area. Don't keep wandering around this historic watermill. Walk into nature for fifteen minutes and you do not know what you see!

Just in the middle of a forest lies a beautiful piece of heathland. Naturally, it is most beautiful in August, when it is in bloom.

The Balcony of Belgium

Highlight • Viewpoint

This luxurious wooden bench is located on a narrow path on the southern slope of the Vijlenerwald with a great view of the Geultal and Sippenaeken. The path leads partly through the Netherlands and partly through Belgium.
The trail offers beautiful views from several points and the bench (facing south) is an excellent place to take a break and enjoy the view.
