Hoge Kempen National Park

The only National Park in Belgium! If you want to fill your lungs with fresh air, this is the place for you!
The gateways are the ideal starting places from where you can explore the National Park and all it has to offer!

In the Mechelse Heide, nature speaks for itself: beautiful heathland as far as the eye can see! Or would you rather climb the mining-stone hills in Connecterra to enjoy a breath-taking panorama? Relive the noble past in the moated castle in Pietersheim or visit the children's farm with playground. In Kattevennen, you can sit back and let yourself be carried away by the 360° projections in the Cosmodrome, while a barefoot trip in Lieteberg will never leave you disappointed! If you’re bringing bikes, then Station As is your ideal starting point.

The National Park with its dark green forests, vast heathland and shimmering fens invites you to go out on a hike. You can choose from 82 signposted loops, which start at the gateways. They are easy to combine thanks to the hiking switches. Did you know that two walks in Pietersheim carry a Premium quality label? If you’ve still got some energy left, then why don’t you have a go at the long-distance hike of 75 km?

We’re confident that cyclists and mountain bikers, too, will find what they are looking for here! Thanks to the network of cycling tracks, you can easily create your own route. Mountain bikers have the choice of 10 signposted loops, ranging from 16 to 80 km, all varying in difficulty.

We even have a whole network of trails for horse riders. With clear signs and clear maps, you will never lose your way!

Would you like to strike out with a local? Every 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month, a Ranger sets off from one of the gateways. Groups can also book their own Rangers online.

Wandelen in de Voerstreek

The Voer-region is one of the finest Flemish hiking regions. The beautiful scenery can now be explored using the marked hiking network, worth approximately 124 km of pure hiking fun. Through more than 90 numbered intersections (crossroads of walking paths), the hiker can choose the itinerary and length of the walk in advance. Or follow one of the theme walks leading through forests, rivers, sunken roads, stately farmhouses and castles, distinctive half-timbered houses and beautiful views.

Wandelgebied Pietersheim

We definitely recommend the short hike through the castle park. With its deciduous forest, its avenues and its orchards, it has a very different character then the drier ‘Hoge Kempen’. Almost all of the hiking routes are situated inside the National Park, sometimes significant climbing is necessary due to the differences in height of the terrain.

Steenmannetjes - Steenmannetjes

Little stone men

On the path to the right of Thor Central, 12 little stone men or small piles of basalt mark the shortest route to the top of the spoil pit. The principle is simple: you walk from one heap of stones to the next. Everyone will come across them at some point, suddenly and unexpectedly. And you are duty-bound to add your own little stone man!

Wandelgebied Kattevennen

The hiking routes starting at ‘Kattevennen’ are the ideal connection between the centre of Genk and the National Park. The vast pine forests are an excellent environment for an intensive walk. Due to the presence of the Botanical Park, the sundials of the ‘Molenvijver’ park and the Path of the Planets, it is also an educational trip.

Examples of possible trips are: following a “wooden plank path”, hiking to the ‘ecoveloduct’ (an ecoduct for both fauna and cyclists), and many more.

Wandelgebied Station As - Ruwmortelven

Wandelgebied Station As

The hiking routes of ‘Station As’ will show you the typical landscape of the ‘Hoge Kempen’. The vast heather fields of yore have been replaces by pine forests and farm land. Still, there are some beautiful areas that will give you an idea of the former heather, like ‘Bosheide’, or ‘Driebanken’. The ‘Dilserbos’ and the ‘Lanklaarderbos’ will challenge your courage with some sturdy slopes of the ‘Kempens Plateau’.

The history of Limburg as a mining area has left its traces in the landscape. Old forests, country roads and homesteads will paint you a picture of the past. As an added bonus, 2 hiking routes take you through the enchanting landscape of the valley of the ‘Bosbeek’, an area with soft sloping hills, humid swamps and clear water of the ‘Bosbeek’.
