Hiking

In the castle forest of Elsloo and elsewhere in the region, many springs originate, you can see the water flowing from the slopes here and there. And you can see the result in nature and even in some places in Elsloo where people have tried to use springs in houses in the old center.

Here, near Terhagen, such a spring originates that can be reached via a small viaduct. And that spring was given the name Terhagerpötje (Terhager well). Terhagen is one of the two hamlets of Elsloo (the other is Catsop).
