Great area 👁️👁️ we recommend it

In De Meinweg National Park, you'll find an important railway heritage site: the old Iron Rhine railway line. This historic railway line, once one of the most important international rail connections, runs right through the area. It is now disused and permanently integrated into the landscape, but its tracks are still easily recognizable and walkable. The Iron Rhine (German: Eisenbahn Rhein) was originally a railway line that ran from the port of Antwerp (Belgium) via Weert and Roermond to Mönchengladbach and the Ruhr region (Germany). The line was constructed between 1879 and 1880 as a vital freight link for the supply of cotton and industrial products to the Rhine and Ruhr regions. Due to political and economic circumstances, the line's use and intensity changed frequently, but it remained in operation for a long time, including double-track sections. Over the course of the 20th century, the use of the Iron Rhine declined. In the Netherlands, the line remained in single-track use after World War II until the last regular train service between Roermond and Dalheim ceased around 1991. After that, the railway line on that section was decommissioned and fell into disuse. However, the remaining rails, trackbeds, and track were never completely dismantled in the section that runs through De Meinweg, and parts of the track are still within the park and are recognizable as old railway tracks, overgrown with vegetation and integrated into walking paths. In De Meinweg National Park, you can freely walk and cycle along this old railway line. Remnants of the track itself are visible in the landscape as long, straight lines through forest and heathland, and in some places, you'll even find remnants of rails or trackbeds. There are several walks around and along this route, including routes that start at Herkenbosch Centrum and cross the old railway line, where the small bridge and level crossings are part of the experience of the terraced landscape. The railway has thus become not only a natural engineering element incorporated by flora and fauna, but also a cultural-historical heritage. The old Iron Rhine illustrates how De Meinweg is not only a natural landscape but also a place where old infrastructure, history, and nature meet.

Saddle down, brakes released, and down you go!
