Hiking
The Grubbe has been a wooded Diestian hill for a very long time (1750). It is surrounded by a curious sunken road network. The area probably owes its name to the deepest sunken road that cuts the ridge in two: the groebbe.
De Grubbe is also the name of the existing building complex. In 1907 it was built as a country retreat by a wealthy industrialist. Afterwards, the domain was expanded with sheds and it was given various military functions. Since 2002 there is a closed youth institution. The villa was beautifully renovated in 2023.
