In the footsteps of old coal paths. The scaffold is one of the last of its kind and is considered an industrial monument.

The listed headframe above Shaft 1 and the associated shaft hall today serve as a reminder of the former Sterkrade mine. The foundation took over the industrial monument in 1997.

That's what I call sensible recultivation: An old railway line from the colliery traffic of the time was converted into a very recommendable cycle path. There are also plenty of opportunities to take a break with a beautiful panorama.

I really enjoyed the circular tour along the HOAG route and the Green Path. Pedestrians and cyclists share the beautiful path. A relaxing ride through the countryside and through industrial culture without disturbing traffic.
Simply fantastic 😎
