Hiking

Since September 2024, there is the 'Tour Elentrik' cycle route in Heusden-Zolder. About 30 boring electricity boxes were taken in hand by local or more famous street art artists in collaboration with Treepack and transformed into small works of art in the streets of our municipality. Wout Maes has created a beautiful tribute to our mining past here. The 'half franc' (before euros existed) was a bronze coin that was introduced in 1952 and with the image of a miner with a leather helmet on the back and a mine lamp next to him.

Apparently, a total of 30 electricity cabinets have been taken care of, including these: some by the people of Treepack and some by local talent. Themes, besides the mine and the mining past: the Wijers and the circuit of Zolder. More on heusden-zolder.eu/verbindende-fietsroute-met-artistieke-stroomkasten.aspx
