From the starting point Station As you can ride straight onto the trails of the Hoge Kempen mountain bike network!

For years, Station As played a central role in coal mining in this region, because from here the many miners and coal trucks left for the nearby mines in Eisden, Waterschei and Winterslag. Now you will find the narrowest visitor reception in the National Park in a restored train.

A little further on the site you will find a 31 meter high observation tower, a replica of the drilling rig with which André Dumont discovered the first coal in Limburg. This gives you a wide view of the station site and the surrounding National Park.

The former station of As is now a cozy café-restaurant where you can still soak up the atmosphere of yesteryear. The platform serves as a terrace.

Beautiful old trainstation. The cafe seems to be closed nowadays, so better check before you plan your trip.
