Description by the author

Hello and welcome! We are the gnomes of the Diergaardsbos. This hundred-year-old forest is our home, and we are happy to show you the way here. On each post, you will find a QR code. When you scan it, we will guide you and reveal the secrets of our beautiful forest along the way. If you listen carefully and look around you, you will discover our houses and friends. First of all, a big secret: gnomes are just like humans. They have family and friends and want to stay together. So please leave them where they are. Alright, are you ready to hit the road? Our route is very suitable for ages 3 to 10.

You start the walk at parking lot 1 (Waldfeuchterbaan in Maria Hoop) and from there you follow the junctions SP - 95 - 93 - 94 - 25 - 95 to the endpoint. The route is less than 2 km, so it’s perfectly walkable for the little ones. Let yourself be surprised. If you have any comments about the route, you can report them via routepunt@visitzuidlimburg.nl.
