Station As - green - 3,8 km

This hike takes you through woodlands and along vast agricultural fields. You essentially hike a loop around the Bosbeek. The 22 km long Bosbeek originates at the border of As and Genk. For a distance of 2.5 km, it forms the border between As and Opglabbeek, a sub-municipality of Oudsbergen. Afterwards, the Bosbeek flows through Opoeteren and Neeroeteren before flowing into the Maas in Aldeneik (Maaseik). Over this short distance, the Bosbeek has a drop of more than 50 meters, which led to the construction of watermills. The valley forms an incision in the Kempense Plateau, effectively splitting this plateau in two.
