A sunken lane is formed by centuries of erosion and use: rainwater washes away the soil, and carts, livestock, and hikers wear the path deeper and deeper. As a result, the lane and its adjacent walls are lower than the surrounding landscape. In South Limburg, sunken lanes are a characteristic and unique part of the landscape. During a walk, they give you the feeling of walking through a green tunnel of trees, shrubs, and ancient chalk soils – a unique natural and cultural-historical experience.
