Very nice forest chapel to rest for a while

I haven't managed it without dismounting yet. The last few meters are always a struggle, even with a serious run-up. Loose rocks and sand make it tricky, and it's really quite steep. A fun challenge!

Deep in the woods around Thor Park and the Klaverberg, the old train tracks still lie, silent witnesses to Genk's industrial past. These tracks were once the lifeblood of the Waterschei coal mine: wagons full of coal, and sometimes even workers, would rush along the rails, connecting them to the rest of Limburg and Belgium. Today, the tracks are abandoned and partly overgrown with moss, ferns, and young trees. The contrast between the rusty steel and the green vegetation makes it a particularly photogenic landscape. During walks, you can follow the tracks along winding forest paths, sometimes almost completely hidden by fallen leaves and undergrowth. The old train tracks are more than just decorative: they tell a story of labor, industry, and the transformation of the landscape. Hikers experience both the tranquility of the forest and the historical power of the industrial past, making every step along the tracks feel like a connection between then and now.

Beautiful route, only at the beginning it takes you into the woods, which isn't a very popular pass, so you'll have to get off your bike frequently. It's better to follow the gray gravel road and you'll end up in the same place.

Roots make it very technical.

Spicy and steep climb

quite a tough climb with loose stones
