Beautiful walk through two different but beautiful nature reserves

Showing Translation

January 22, 2022,Park Midden Limburg: Kelchterhoef

Misty day in the beautiful Park Midden Limburg. Today from Kelchterhoef. Mixture of heath, lakes and unlimited forest trails. Scots pine forest then mixed forest or even single birch forest but almost everywhere with holly in the undergrowth. Beautiful walk, already, and even more so when the weather is nice and green.

A nice round through forest, heath and along ponds. Started from the large parking lot on Kelchterhoefstraat in Houthalen-Helchteren (near restaurant Abdijhoeve Houthalen). A beautiful walking tour that runs through nature and is almost car-free!
