Resterheide - blue - 5,5 km

The Reigerpad (the blue route) offers an adventurous and educational hike. Along the way, you will encounter 14 playful and educational elements and can overcome fun obstacles on the Eekhoorntjeskronkel.

Resterheide, located on the border of Hechtel-Eksel and Peer, is a diverse area where you can explore the source area of the Zwarte Beek and the Bollissenbeek. Although the name suggests otherwise, Resterheide mainly consists of agricultural fields and coniferous woodlands.

The hiking trails take you past serene ponds, coniferous and deciduous woodlands, nature fields, and typical agricultural landscapes.

The Lieveheersbeestjespad is specially developed for strollers and wheelchair users and is adapted for blind and visually impaired visitors.

Don’t forget to bring your binoculars to spot waterfowl from the observation tower by the ponds.
