This luxurious wooden bench is located on a narrow path on the southern slope of the Vijlenerwald with a great view of the Geultal and Sippenaeken. The path leads partly through the Netherlands and partly through Belgium.
The trail offers beautiful views from several points and the bench (facing south) is an excellent place to take a break and enjoy the view.

Hiking

If you continue the route from here, you will enter a forest where hunting takes place a few times a year. Pay close attention to the announcement sign! After this you arrive at a golf course and you have to follow the sign 'sentier' to go right down 'the path'.
