It's like walking through a green tunnel on the Geusenweg. In the 18th century it formed a hidden church route between Eupen and Vaals - there Protestants, who were insulted and persecuted as “Geusen” (beggars) at the time, found refuge in the middle of a Catholic-dominated region.

The carpet of dead leaves is slippery. Caution !

Now in winter it was very muddy, but that doesn't bother us. 😊 The drawing on this one tree on the Geusenweg was very interesting. Does it have any meaning? (Similar drawings could be found on a stone on the West Wall chain and on another tree in the surrounding area. Somehow reminiscent of gears.)
