TRAIN HIKING ROUTE GREEN HEART OF LIMBURG: FROM GENK THROUGH DE MATEN TO BOKRIJK

Limburg is a continuous chain of large nature reserves. We make a hiking trip from station to station through the most beautiful nature of Limburg.

The first stage departs from Genk station, immediately enters the Malberg forest area, and takes you through De Maten, one of the largest but also oldest nature reserves in Flanders, covering 300 hectares. You end at Bokrijk station. If you prefer to have the necessary hospitality at the end, you can simply reverse the route.

All stages of this route: 

1. From Genk through De Maten to Bokrijk

2. From Bokrijk through Kiewit and De Wijers to Zonhoven

3. From Zonhoven through De Wijers and Herkenrode to Hasselt
