    Boscafé het Hijgend Hert is a household name in the area. In the middle of the Vijlener Forests, it is said, this only mountain hut in the Netherlands. You can go here for excellent food, tasty (large) cakes & pies and an extensive beer list. Het Hijgend Hert is also part of Vijlenerberg Kroegjes Routes, a collection of walking routes through the beautiful hilly landscape of South Limburg in combination with delicious food and drinks. (To do!)
