Hiking

One of the many beautiful sunken roads in the area, with a playing field and bivouac zone, as well as horses in a meadow...

Hiking

You can see the play area when you walk through the sunken road, so pay attention. It is part of the 'Holsbeeks play fabric' of which you can also find parts in other places such as the castle of Horst and some witness hills. An idea for a walk with kids. This play area has the bat as its theme (with educational information). You can see the horses between the play field and the horse farm at a crossing with another road.

Hiking

A sunken road is a road that is so deeply worn that it lies between two slopes. It is the result of centuries of use and erosion. The most beautiful sunken roads can be found especially in hilly areas with a subsoil that easily forms steep walls, such as in Haspengouw and Hageland.
