Station As - green - 3,2 km
Nationaal Park Hoge Kempen
This short hike takes you to the Driebanken-bos, along the narrow-gauge railway. You pass the geological wall that you can admire, and in the play area, children can have fun.
Extensive description CloseThe woodland and heathland area between Station As and the geological face is very diverse. In the middle lies a heath remnant, the favored habitat of the viviparous lizard.
The geological face, located in a former quarry, offers you a view of the formation history of the Hoge Kempen. Through a staircase tower 8.5 meters high, you can view the face at various levels. At the top, you stand on the original level, before there was a quarry.
