    Just a detour along the sand hill

      An epic trek through the only place in Belgium where you can fill your hiking boots with sand without being on the coast. This route takes you right through the heart of the Hoge Kempen National Park, culminating in the mighty Oudsberg sand dune.

      Seriously, that thing isn't a hill, it's a mini-desert in the woods. The golden sand glistens in the sun as if you're searching for lost treasure (spoiler alert: you'll only find pine cones). Perfect for those who love nature, challenging hikes, and a bit of dramatic scenery change.
