Nationaal Park Hoge Kempen

Extensive description CloseThe Zandloperpad introduces you to the typical heathland and dune landscape of the Hoge Kempen. The path is paved so that wheelchair users and families with strollers can also enjoy the beautiful scenery. The path owes its name to the Zandloopkever, a permanent resident of this area who moves easily through the sandy soil.
