Hiking

The railway lines are the relics of a former loading ramp for the gravel extraction of basin 3, which is now a nature conservation project.

Hiking

Along the overgrown track, a narrow path leads directly in front of a wooden fence. This is the end of the former Belgian Armed Forces cul-de-sac terminal (also known as the loading dock), which was dismantled in 2011. It served as a transhipment point for tanks. There was also a bivouac site in the immediate vicinity.
